Special ornithological reserve : Bara Dvorina .
9AFF-0035
JN95CC
Near river Sava and Bosnian border.
Every third Sunday is time for 9A VHF and Up Activity contest.
And as this reference is very near to me (about 15km ) and last activity was in 2019, and no many QSOs where made in past:
It was logical choice.
54 QSOs where made in VHF Contest on 144MHz.
200QSOs on 7 and 14MHz.
Interesting is that DX stations was somehow with better signals than many closer.
