On Monday 1st April 2024 at 11:00 UTC, Mike G3VQQ, a radio amateur from West Yorkshire in the north of England, made contact with Jakub OM1WS/P, a radio amateur from Slovakia, who was operating from PR Cierna skala (OMFF-0886), on the 40m amateur radio band.
PR Cierna skala (OMFF-0886), is a protected area of 30 hectares lying to the north-east of Bratislava in the west of Slovakia. It was designated in 2004 as a Nature Reserve and is an IUCN Management Category Ia area.
An IUCN Management Category Ia area is an area with the highest level of protection and is set aside to protect the area's biodiversity and also geological or geomorphological features. These areas are important for scientific research and monitoring, so recreational use and other human activity is strictly controlled and limited.
Jakub was at the summit of Cierna skala (662 metres asl) while he was at the reserve and made a total of 75 contacts for the Summits on the Air (“SOTA”) group.
