POTA GB-3476 Wetherby Railway Path National Scenic Trail 2025-03-29

The plan was a 5 to 10 park rove around Wetherby, Knaresborough and Harrogate. I started with the one at Wetherby and got set up.

This “park” is an old railway line which is now a walking and cycling path, it was quite busy with runners for 07:00 on a Saturday morning.

Could get nothing on SSB so went to digital, 40 mins to get 10 contacts, this was not going to be a good day for activating, I think.

I did not hang around as wanted to get on to the next park. Packed up and headed back to the car with hopes the bands might improve.
