Lake District SOTA Weekend 18/19th May 2019 part2

In four weeks’ time, I’m moving home from Buckinghamshire to a village in south Cumbria. My wife thinks we’re moving to get away from the hurly-burly of SE England and back to her roots. But the real reason is so I can swap one nearby SOTA summit for 50+.

Sadly, the much-delayed move will now be 3 days AFTER the Lake District SOTA weekend. However, under the guise of a round trip there that weekend to drop off my wife’s pot plants, I’ll get to spend Saturday afternoon on Arnside Knott (G/LD-058) playing radio on 23cm and 2m. I might have to miss out on the Saturday night get-together, which would be a pity.

BTW: I retired recently and - after the move - will have lots of time weekdays to walk LD SOTA summits. So, I’m looking forward to working you on these bands as well as on HF CW.

73, Andy
