XLY was down this way for work and as I had nothing one I came down with her to try and activate these 2 parks.

I got parked up and car park had a couple of boy racers revving their cars which made SSB difficult so I switched to FT8 and FT4. Conditions were not brilliant and it took me while to get enough contacts to activate the park.

I don’t think I would do this park again, at least not in the early evening, it might be nicer during the day.
