Tapitallee Nature Reserve VKFF-2734

Tapitallee Nature Reserve VKFF-2734 is a short drive West of Bomaderry. Headed along Illaroo Rd, turning off left into Koloona Dr. Sign for the park

Continued along Koloona Dr until spotting the remnants of an old stock gate on the right, just before a private road on the left. Parked here and set up the station, using the table to support the squid pole

Operating spot. Map from Protected Planet

Shack on the table. Quite pleasant in the sun, and the wind had dropped too.

Ran the FT-857D at around 30 w. Started on 40 m. Worked

Saw a ParksnPeaks spot for VK4JAZ/p Grant setting up on SOTA summit VK4/SE-059 Tamborine Mountain, so returned to 40 m to work him. He was a good 57 signal. Also in VKFF-0475 Tamborine National Park

Packed up and returned to Nowra for lunch.
