The annual LRS Direction-Finding Contest (D/F Hunt) was held on 27th May 2015 with a new start point on Braid Hills Road, next to the entrance to the Braids Golf Course to avoid the high level of noise experienced last year outside the Braid Hills Hotel. Peter GM4DTH was the fox station on 1.875MHz using the callsign GM3HAM/P.

There were seven stations taking part: Malcolm GM3TAL, Bernie GM4WZG, John GM8OTI (with Alan GM3PSP), Melvyn GM4HYR, Mike GM8KCS, Jack GM1CQC and Brian GM4DIJ. 

Peter was hiding, well concealed,  in woods near the Stable Bar at Mortonhall (pure coincidence, of course) and was found by three participants: 

Time        Callsign

1h 27m    GM4HYR

1h 42m    GM8KCS

2h 01m    GM4DIJ 

After the event we adjourned to ... the Stable Bar ... for light refreshments.

 

Here are photos taken at the Summer Pub Nights at "Wee Bennets Bar" at Morningside which were held on the normal club meeting dates of 2nd and 4th Wednesdays of July and August 2015.
