POTA @ DA-0015 Mosel Valley

December light — low, orange, perfect. Parked at the riverside, carried the station up through the vineyard terraces, and set up on a bench that overlooked the Moselle.

Twenty metres was narrow but open; worked Spain, Portugal, a handful of Italians and a patient Scot. Seventeen surprised me with a handful of eastern Europeans around sunset, and forty metres filled in the end of the session with locals.

Two coffees, twenty-two QSOs, and a very sharp edge to the wind by the time I packed up.
