My home and pictures from DXpedition locations in the Finnish Arctic

My home is in Kangasala (20 km East from Tampere, 61.24N, 24.00E) near Lake Roine in Southern Finland. This photo was taken in midsummer 1996. My three children are there, too.

Here is one of them - Onni, 5 years in 1997...

... and here is the whole gang, Jukka, Seppo and Onni at Lake Lankojärvi in November 1996.

Several times I have been listening in Posio, close to the Arctic circle in South-Eastern Lapland.

During the years 1996-97 I was working in Tornio, Lapland. During weekends I listened several times at Tuomo Waara's QTH at Lake Lankojärvi in Western Lapland, some 20 km North of the Arctic Circle.

Lake Lankojärvi at 7 o'clock in the morning sometimes in October 1996 when the lake was frozen for the first time that winter.

Here is Tuomo Waara, OH9JML in January 1997. The temperature was about -30 degrees (Celsius) when this photo was taken.
