Saturday started out just beautiful here in Kingston, blue skies and a temperature of about +12C......almost heaven after the weather of the past 5 months!In fact it was so nice, I decided that after coffee I would take a detour on the way home and look for some new operating locations for use later in the spring and summer. I managed to find one new location. It's very quiet, no RF interference, and it's kind of off the beaten track. This place has been right under my nose for some time, I just have never been there to explore what was available.
It's located on the east side of Portsmouth Olympic Harbour, at the end of a small gravel track, right alongside of the old Kingston Pen wall. Twelve months ago the guards would have told us to move on.....but the place has now been closed down and the guards are the ones who have been moved on. The spot is within the red circle on the above photo.
If the weather holds I'm planning on operating from their tomorrow, Sunday, 13th April, with the Buddipole and the IC-703.
