MOROKULIEN
The name Morokulien is a compound word of the Norwegian word "moro" and the Swedish word "kul" for fun. The last ending "-ien" means "in one" (the two words in one) and this became the name of the state Moro-kul-ien. Morokulien is a "ham-state" on the border between Norway and Sweden. The special callsign for the Norwegian side is LG5LG, and the special callsign of the Swedish side is SJ9WL. If you as a HAM-oparator are visiting Morokulien for several days you have to change call-sign SJ9WL/LG5LG every other day.
