GW/MW-013 Corndon Hill

Last of the day

GW/MW-013 Corndon Hill

11/03/2016

This summit has a bit of a stiff climb but thankfully a short one. The sun was gradually dipping lower on the horizon and it was noticeably cooler on top compared to the earlier summits. 
On our way
That was a stiff climb :)
First in the log was an s2s on 2m with Adrian who was on Gwaunceste Hill GW/MW-010 so thanks for that one Adrian and the brief chat. A nice run of chasers on 60m many having contacted me on all three summits during the day….thanks everybody.

Out to change the links.

Another steady flow of chasers and once more a few  who had chased me on all summits. A nice s2s broke the pile up with Juerg calling me from HB/JU-003 Frenois…many thanks Juerg and thanks to all the chasers for standing by whilst we completed  the contact.

Final calls of the day
As I was packing away I heard James calling  CQ SOTA on 2m from Mynydd Troed so he was immediately in the log followed shortly by Caroline and Martyn on Cyrn y Brain. I acted as a ‘piggy in the middle’ whilst Caroline and Martyn set up their 2m antenna and eventually they managed to get an s2s with James…thanks everyone.
