POTA Activation with Boy Scout Troop 85
Показать описание
Contacts from my Parks On The Air (POTA) activation of K-1741 Lum Pond State Park in Bear, Delaware on 12/04/2021.
Boy Scout leader, Frank W3RMZ, asked for volunteers to give a Parks On The Air demonstration to Boy Scout Troop 85 from Media, Pennsylvania, who were camping for the weekend at Lums Pond and I volunteered along with some others. Joining me was John W3VL who talked to the scouts more about radio and other things that can be done with it and Ernie W3GUY who talked to the scouts over VHF.
It is also Youth On The Air (YOTA) Month all over the world!
Thank you to all of the hunters and POTA activators for making this a successful activation!

I am not affiliated administratively with the Parks On The Air organization, but a happy participant in the POTA program.
Q: What is Parks On The Air?
A: Parks On The Air (or POTA) for international portable amateur radio (ham radio) operations that promote emergency awareness and communications from national/federal and state/provincial level parks.
There are activators and there are hunters. Activators go into POTA approved parks, set up their amateur radio equipment and call CQ (CQ is an invitation for any amateur radio operators listening on that frequency to respond and make contact). Hunters will contact the activators and upon a successful contact, the activator puts the hunter into their logs that will be uploaded to calling area representatives who will then upload those logs to the POTA system. Hunters do not need to upload any logs.
