A gig in Falkirk and my immediate thought was Lambrigg Fell G/LD-046 sitting, as it does, right by J37 of the M6. Very heavy rain all the way up from Macclesfield concerned me; the Met Office forecast was for dry conditions on my summit. Sure enough, the rain turned to fog as the M6 began to gain altitude in Cumbria, and thick fog was as bad as it got weather wise for the walk and activation.
I enjoyed the short walk greatly, as I did the activation. On 40m CW I made 22 QSOs including 4 S2S. Just one contact was added on 2m FM.
Next stop - FTH Theatre, Falkirk.
After the gig, I drove south down the M74 and M6, dropping two band members in Penrith and another in Bolton-le-Sands. I was OK up to that point but then I hit the “wall”. I only made it to Forton Services where I pulled in and had a sleep in the car. I was now fancying an activation of Winter Hill G/SP-010. |
