The first full weekend in October was reserved to take part in the UHF Contest on 70cm with HB9AJ. HB/JU-001 was not too far away from our contest location in JN37SH88 and I planned to activate my second HB/JU hill on Saturday morning. Mont Raimeux was above the sea of fog and I was greeted by ufb wx.
