Heath Mynd, G/WB-007 - 452m ASL - SO 336 941 - OS Explorer 216 - 1 SOTA point SOTA road trip, Day 1 - Saturday 1st August 2020 From Stingwern Hill GW/MW-030, it was back over the national border and just into England for the next activation. I parked at the junction between road and track on the west side of the hill, making sure that I wasn't blocking any other access in this small area. The track leading off NNW is marked as a byway, though I wouldn't dream of attempting to drive up it! You then turn right to follow a boundary, before turning right again for the final climb to the summit - about 30 minutes walking altogether.
After setting up I noticed that Rod MW0JLA/P was QRV on 17m SSB from Allt y Main GW/NW-059 where I'd been earlier that day. I made the S2S contact, and later also worked Viki MW6BWA/P from the same summit on both 70cm and 2m FM. It was good to work my friend Aled MW0UPH/M on 17m SSB before I switched to CW. Gibraltar was then a pleasing contact in the logbook. I returned to the car and made my way to Caeliber Isaf GW/MW-031.
