Activation of EA7/MA-126 March 2025

 Straightforward summit and ascent with plenty of activation space

 

The path proceeds through woodland then into open farmland.  A closed farm gate appears to block the path but it is possible to get over the fence fairly easily further up - just follow the fence line.

 


The summit is quite rocky but offers plenty of space for activation.  I wedged my Sotapole in between some rocks and used a bungee to hold it in place - fortunately the wind was light.

I managed 26 QSOs on 20m, 15m and 40m including 2 summit-to-summit QSOs.

Next activation EA7/MA-010

 An easy SOTA summit just off the A9, worth 2 points   In September 2025 I activated 4 summits in the Cairngorms.  There are good write ups ...
