Activation Report G/TW-002 Cringle Moor

Yesterday I took the chance to do Cringle Moor again

So I set up catching the local bus from Hartlepool to Middlesbrough at 06:15 & then the bus to Stokesley where i grabbed some breakfast by 08:30 .

I started the walk which is around 3 miles via Kirkby in Cleveland

Then to Kirkby Bank to make the climb to the summit , I got set up by 10:15 and started on 40m using the Icom IC-705 and the Slidewinder DX antenna

I worked G4OOE/P on G/TW-001 just along from Cringle Moor and was in view on 15m .

Just before I left I worked G1ZQJ/P on VHF FM at Sighty crag G/SB-005

Overall I worked 85 on 40 20 15 12 and 10m

I am hoping to activate G/TW-004 next week sometime

Thanks to all that called

Hi Carl

I can see that you had a great time on Cringle Moor, I was pleased to get you in the log from Round Hill, Urra Moor. I had an enjoyable time too in good weather. Good luck when you do Bishop Wilton Wold. Thanks for the s2s.

Hi Carl,
thank you for taking the time to share your experience. That’s always refreshing to see some cool sunny summit picture while commuting in the rainy morning fog.
Makes me think about next weekend’s activation :wink:

Have a great you all. 73,
