A Few Hours On Parys Mountain 25/5/2024

Parys Mountain, originaly known as Trysclwyn, changed its name when it was gifted to Robert Parys, Chamberlain of North Wales by King Henry IV.
The mountain is truly one of Anglesey’s must-visit locations, offering a network of scenic walks around the rocky moon surface like landscape of an ancient copper mine.

For Amateur radio operators Parys Mountain is a superb mobile radio station site with its elevation of 147m above sea level.

Dragon Amateur Radio Club we are lucky to have permission to use the small carpark on the site for club VHF/UHF days. On this sunny but rather chilly day in particular we made plenty of good contacts on 2m and 70cm including local contacts. We also made contacts from as far afield as Glasgow, Co Wicklow in Ireland, as well as making SOTA contacts from Bala and Aberporth in Ceredigion.

Thanks to all of our members who came along.
