Wednesday 22nd June 2022 - Lamberton Hill GM/SS-286, Dirrington Great Law GM/SS-225 & Spartleton GM/SS-182

 

Full day pass out for Jimmy MQ0HGY/P and I.  The first - Lamberton Hill was a short walk along a fence boundary to the trig point, keeping a watchful eye on reportedly problematic cows.  Sure enough they did make a move towards us so I shouted a couple of “Oi!”s and waved my trekking poles in the air.  They stopped in their tracks, and we continued.

Jimmy continued onto the true summit, a further field away, then returned to the trig point where we operated from.  I did 20m - five on CW and one on SSB.  Jimmy continued with the 20m SSB station after failing to get anything on VHF.

After the short descent, we drove over to Dirrington Great Law GM/SS-225.
