G0UUU/M Peak District

Post by G0UUU »

Hi all,

Heading over to the Peak District tomorrow 07/03/16 for a weeks holiday. We'll be setting off from Scarborough around midday and will do some squares on the way. Once there we hope to be out at some point most days.

We should have Internet access at the cottage we're staying at, so will post any plans on here and the WAB Yahoo reflector.

Hi All,

Should be on today from around midday. Not sure exactly what we're doing, but got to nip in to an Argos. Nearest is in SK39 (I think). So will be starting from there then most likely heading into the Peak District national park. Going to play it by ear, as there's a bit of snow about and that could dictate where we end up.

Throwing it down with rain today and it's set in according to BBC weather. Will likely still venture out to put a few squares on at about 1pm local.

Probably be SK39, SE20, 10, 00, 01, 11, 21

Hi all,

Looking to do SK25, 15, 05, SJ95, 96, 97, 98, 99 today.

Not sure of the exact time, going for lunch first. So probably around 1pm if we can find somewhere to eat fairly early.

Hi all,

Last full day today. Planning on doing SK69, 79, 89, 99, 98, 88, 78, 68

Critical frequency is looking a bit more promising than yesterday, so with a bit of luck we should be able to work a few more!

Should be on about 11am.

Travelling back tomorrow. SK29 to TA08. Will be on the road around 9.30am, which will likely be too early for conditions. Will call on 7.160 anyway (if clear). Drive should take a couple of hours, so maybe conditions will have picked up by the home stretch?

Thanks for all the QSOs this week and especially to the net controllers.
