Very sorry chasers I gave the wrong reference from my summit today.
I gave GW/NW-060 Mynydd-y-briw. When in fact I was on GW/NW-064 Mynydd Rhiw.
Sorry !!! Doh…Old age?

Log updated, thanks for 'fessing up Barry!
I’m glad its not just me who does things like that :o)
Good to work you on 60m, one of my few contacts on that band. Lots of noise here, and using a random bit of wire because my doublet is down for maintenance at the moment…

Happens to us all Barry.
Have to take my car in for a service in Leeds during rush hour tomorrow(about an hour in very heavy traffic) because I rang the wrong number. Should have been Bradford branch which is only 20mins away even in heavy traffic !!! 
Log corrected thanks for new WAB square on 60m and 40m (NW-60 wasn’t).

Hi Barry,
If you are like me, you leave the useful radio paperwork in the car and concentrate on the walk, taking the map as a priority! Can’t say you have much excuse on NW-064 though, unless you started at the bottom of the hill. 
I must start attaching a copy of the summit information to the back of my maps so I don’t need to ask the first chaser for the summit reference, locator, etc.

I can’t believe people don’t do that as a matter of course. That doesn’t stop you attaching the wrong info to the map as I did by giving Morrone’s ref when I was on Ben Gulabin!
EDIT:
For those who are Scottish summit location challenged, Morrone is about 10miles further up the A93 than Ben Gulabin. It’s the next Marilyn along.

Maps? How quaint. Not used one for years.

So I see from the database Richard - last unique summit activation GM/SS-202 (Carn Dearg) on 26th August 2011. Anyway, maps don’t need batteries like mapping GPS do, so at the very least they are a useful, nay essential, back-up. Usually the two work hand in hand - the GPS in Paul’s hand, the map in mine… and we’ve never not got to a summit yet.

Well Andy, the principle I work to is that I carry a copy of the itinerary with me separately as that has all the summit details on it and I can enter the actual times on it. However, I often manage to leave it in the car and end up putting times on the log sheets. Generally I haven’t realised that the information is not to hand until I have commenced the activation. Not a problem on 2m SSB as I have been able to ask, but it could have been a little tricky when running HF CW first. Thankfully on Islay when I ran HF first, all the SOTA references were firmly in my head and no-one asked for the locator or the WAB reference.
