POTA GB-2736 Bishops Wood and Cawood Common Nature Reserve – 2024/10/15

Leandro G5LSI mentioned that he was heading to a new park near me, so I said I would come and join him for the activation.

Due to the traffic from York and Bishops wood being about 5mins drive from me I got there first and got set up.

By the time G5LSI arrived I had activated the park, sorry Leandro.

We kept on working and swapping bands.
