Cool

Ibsley DVOR wasn't in a field but in true new forest heathland close to some old gun emplacements. The track to it was about half a mile long and a "Southern Area Maintenance Unit's" engineer's rally driving heaven! (except if you were driving a MK IV cortina that is)

I beleive many student Atco's used to make a pilgrimage to the site from the college and scratch their names on the counterpoise uprights. If I knew how to post pictures on these forums, things could get very nostalgic!
