Report From West Norfolk Countryside Ride 30 Mar 2014

Thank you to members that turned out to help provide safety communications cover at this multi-distance horse ride. We had 165 riders taking part on routes up to 10 miles long. A couple of riders managed to get misplaced and one lost his horse. All ended well and all managed to complete part of the course.

We ran a 2m net at 5W which provided good coverage,  We attempted to run the cross-band talk-though unit but the voltage on the battery we used dropped rendering the unit unusable. Dropping back to simplex mode proved fine. Further tests on the battery capacity will be undertaken.
