Read MoreAfter a week of rain we had a rare dry day for radio orienteering. It was hot and muggy, but not wet.

The practice events closely resembling the competition conditions we have held are […]

The roles were reversed from the day before: those who did 80m courses on Saturday did 2m on Sunday and vice versa.
