#parksontheair — Public Fediverse posts

Crib Goch, Snowdon, and Y Lliwedd made for a great circuit yesterday in brilliant weather. This was my tenth SOTA activation of GW/NW-001. 33 contacts across Europe and a POTA Park to Park too! 73

I tried out #so50 #satellite QSO's and managed to hunt a #pota reference #parksontheair #hamradio https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YN7vCURP8ns

I treated myself to a new SSB gimmick.
So I don't have to haul the heavy airtight contest grade headset for #ParksOnTheAir
Which also has been a long time. I should head out again. Shouldawouldacoulda.

This Koss item got reasonably good reviews from the #hamradio community. I'm curious.

Brought out a trio of my @qrplabs #qcxmini 40,30,20 for a #parksontheair #pota #amateurradio #hamradio CW #morsecode #qrpradio activation. Let's see if the bands cooperate today.

Beautiful spring afternoon for a #amateurradio #hamradio #pota #parksontheair activation with a #straightkey with my #heathkit #hw8 CW #morsecode #qrpradio Transceiver into a #qrp #EFHW #tenntenna transformer.

So, the thought occurred to me today, Wreck Beach at UBC is part of Pacific Spirit Park, which is a #ParksOnTheAir park. That means that you could activate the park while completely nude. NPOTA!

Been really enjoying the EFHW antenna for sure! I'm coloring the markers by band now, 'cause that seems way more interesting. I'm especially happy to get Nova Scotia this weekend!

We were out today activating POTA site IE-0228 from the National Botanic Gardens.

It was a lovely Sunday radio outing, and as far as we know it was the first ever POTA activation from the Botanic Gardens.

Thanks to Daniel McDowell EI8ICB and @tdr112 EI7IRB for taking part, and thanks as well to South Dublin Radio Club for their net.

Portable radio, fresh air, and a few nice contacts along the way. Hard to complain about that.

We’re heading out for another Parks on the Air activation on Easter Monday, 6 April from Ticknock Forest, Dublin.

We’ll be operating as EI0TOG, with @tdr112 EI7IRB leading the activation. You’re very welcome to join us in person, or listen out and give us a call on the bands.
It’s open to the wider TOG community and the public, and if radio is not your thing, Ticknock is still a lovely spot for a walk.

Peaked out of hibernation for a quick #hamradio #amateurradio CW #morsecode #qrp #pota #parksontheair activation with my #hb1b into #linkeddipole

The foundation is mostly complete, so adding new views and charts to my xOTAStats project is now much easier.

https://xotastats.dc6st.de/

Today I added percentages to the overview table, and subpages with sortable/searchable tables for all #SOTA / #POTA associations.

There are some known issues in the official databases, so don't be surprised if some number is off a bit here and there. The overall picture should be correct, though.

Our POTA/SOTA DXPedition to the Canary Islands (aka "spending winter here because it's too horrible in continental Europe") is going quite well so far I would say...

This weekend was "Support Your Parks" weekend on #POTA, so we activated seven seperate parks yesterday (one shared #SOTA), for a total of 168 QSOs including 25 Park-to-Park.

Some very nice connections in the log again: Brazil, Peru, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Colombia, South Africa.
