2 Meters Portable

Burney Fell 

Wainwrights On the Air (WOTA) LDO-075

Located a few miles outside the village of Kirkby In Furness, and about 4 miles from the town of Ulverston is Burney Fell.  At 980 feet above sea level, Burney Fell offers 360 degree views of the Lakes and South Cumbria, and is a perfect location for portable operations.  In January 2012 Burney Fell was classed as a WOTA, LDO-075 as it appears in Wainwrights Outlying Fells book.  In March 2012 I had the first activation of this fell!  The map below shows some points worked from this location using 2 Meters FM.
