Had some spare time so thought I would go a try and active a newish park near me. Checked on the map and saw I could quite close by to the park. Set off and got parked up and set off up the road to the park.

Got in the park, I knew I was there as the sign said I was in the park but the park looked like railway siding.

Got set up and got on the air. Was only the air for about 30 mins as it was cold and the trains going past every few mins made it hard to hear the QSO’s
