Thank you very much, Markus, for your update on SDRA programme. I look  
forward to coming!

Hopefully you would know how to get to Friedrichshafen. Would it be  
better  
to fly to Liechtenstein or Switzerland (Zurich) if there is reliable  
transport or still to Munich (though it looks 3x further away than  
German  
border).

Maybe you could suggest any major airport hub with transport up to  
there?

Thank you very much.

BR,

Iluta

Hi Iluta,

over German Railroad (Deutsche Bahn)'s website [www.bahn.de](http://www.bahn.de) you can plan  
and book train tickets from both M?nchen and Z?rich Flughafen  
(==airport); just checked, takes about two hours and 30 ? to get from  
Zurich airport to Friedrichshafen Stadt. If you get a connection  
including a transport called “Schiff”, you’ll be taking a ferry over the  
Lake Constance (Bodensee). Depending on the weather, that might be a  
nice trip 🙂  
Munich airport (M?nchen Flughafen) – Friedrichshafen Stadt takes a  
little less than four hours, I’d estimate.  
There’s Stuttgart Flughafen (3 hours by train), and possibly Basel  
EuroAirport (about 4 hours by train).  
In fact, Friedrichshafen does have an international airport (to my own  
surprise) that at least Lufthansa services.  
The biggest German airport is Frankfurt Flughafen (FRA), and if you take  
a fast train, you’ll reach Friedrichshafen in but 3:30h – so if in  
doubt, Frankfurt is your choice. You might want to stay away from  
Frankfurt/Hahn (HHN), that’s the discount airport somewhere in the  
middle of nowhere, and not really close to Frankfurt.

Liechtenstein (the whole country) is about 2 times as big as  
Friedrichshafen; they didn’t try to squeeze an airport into that 😃

by the way, [google.com/flights](http://google.com/flights) lets you choose FDH as target airport,  
and add nearby airports so you can quickly chose cheap/comfortable  
flights.

Best regards,  
Marcus

Dear Marcus, Thanks a lot! Switzerland and Zurich airport with a travel  
over the lake sound excellent!

Good reminder to stay away from Frankfurt. Actually I’ve been to all  
Frankfurt airports (FRA, ZFR, HHN), and depending on purpose of travel  
all  
of these airports are very good!

[google.com/flights](http://google.com/flights) is an interesting find, I didn’t know about such.

Wiil be at SDR Academy on June 27.

My best regards,

Iluta

Dear Marcus,

Regarding the excellent SDR Academy programme and other programmes  
there,  
especially the ones concerning space satellite and deep space signal  
reception - would you suggest that my pc with the sdr’s as well should  
be  
brought in for practice, or it will be organized as lecture type event?  
Please advise.

With my best regards,

Iluta

PS. To whom it may concern: 95% of hotels are sold out in the town  
already.

Btw if you can get any transportation, there’s quite a few cheaper and  
nice  
places in a 20km radius, most of which don’t appear on the usual hotel  
booking websites.

The HamRadio event is a pretty major one and many of us tend to book in  
January or so to make sure we get the hotels we like.

Best regards

Stefano
