I’ve changed the start time for this coming Wednesday’s first club meeting of 2016 to 8pm to allow time for those who wish to eat in the bar beforehand. Food service starts at 7pm. I’m aware that some of you have a long drive to get to/from this venue and some come straight from work. The aim therefore will be to start the meeting upstairs at 8pm sharp and to finish by 10pm.
As the subject of the meeting is preparation for the Sites Competition, I've set up a little practice competition as a bit of fun! The attached picture shows the Swan Inn with 2 circles over it, a red “site circle” and a blue “waypoint circle”. These are similar to sites and waypoints in the Sites Competition itself. One aim of the evening will be to set up your GPS devices to show these circles and then I hope to walk the course and see if we can bag the waypoint before repairing back to the warm and dry to download tracklogs. This walk should be no more than 160 metres… if you’ve programmed your kit correctly and understood the task! Sadly, this waypoint won't count in the comp proper! ;-) The only devices I can brief on are Kobo devices running XCSoar and the Garmin GPS 76 series, but I’m sure that others present will be able to help with other devices.
It would be really useful if you were to have a quick read of the instructions (attached) beforehand so we don't waste too much time on the basics.
Do please let me know if there’s anything you’d like specific help with.
