Work in Stable!

This weekend was spend in the (train)stable. We did a lot of work on the steam engine preparing to fire it up next Friday.


This is a picture from the "Cock-Pit" of the 1909 40 ton's Steam Engine. Lots of brass to polish. Wonder where the brake control is??? It shall be very exiting to start building up pressure for the first time this year. Normal working pressure is 12 kg/square cm  (about 170 psi). I will keep you informed.

Now to some radio relatrd stuff! Managed to work 9M0L on 7 band slots. From 80 to 10m. But I missed 12 m. All CW.

Today I shall start digging all the 160/80 m radials into the lawn before it is time to start cutting it. It is not so fun to catch one radial into the lawn-mower. It create a big mess!!!!!

CUL and take care.
