Ruardean Hill, G/WB-021 - 290m ASL - SO 635 169 - OS Explorer OL14 - 1 SOTA point SOTA road trip, Day 7 - Friday 7th August 2020 From May Hill G/WB-019, I followed the satnav the short distance south-west to Ruardean. In the village of Ruardean Hill, I drove onto the good tracks and found a parking space.
I set up the 17m GP antenna beside a bench close to the beacon, but not before nipping over the road to grab a photograph of the trig point, enclosed as it is in a gated area.
Seven CW contacts were made, including S2S with Fabio IK2LEY/3 in Italy. Three summits activated before local midday, and I was now back in the car and on my way back into Wales (just) for Graig Syfyrddin GW/SW-020.
