Our hope with this contest is that Radio Amateurs will go out to discover our beautiful Swedish nature. Another advantage that in most cases, receiving is completely free from noise and areas close to the nature reserves are usually also a very good takeoff for our broadcast signals. Nature reserves are also very convenient because they are so numerous, that the vast majority have very many in his neighborhood. This saves costs and the environment because we do not have to drive so far with the car.
