Description: Dave Chippendale hid in a disused offshoot of the Manchester Ship Canal. It doesn't look like a potential DF site on the map, but there was plenty of cover. Chris Heys admits to being quite lucky with his victory here. He stopped to take a bearing on the B5311 simply to see which side of the Ship Canal the transmitter might be on. As is turned out he was on site. Chris Plummer had already got there 10 minutes before, having got a good cross from a double-take on the second transmission at 10:42. Chris Heys then beat him (just) when Dave next transmitted. This was a bad weather DF - it rained all the time.
