SOTA Weekend to Start Friday Night

This weekend, the annual North America Summits on the Air activities event will include some stations camping-out on mountain tops. Look for them all modes starting Friday night, if the big CME bomdardment cooperates. Saturday and Sunday should see as many as 75 battery-powered stations from summits in the US, Canada and Puerto Rico, in addition to the usual 30 European climbers. The web site "Sotawatch" shows real-time information about who is on which frequency and which mountain, together with a mapping option: http://www.sotawatch.org

Don't miss this unusual and fun event.

Great! I'll be hunting for SOTA goats this weekend. Thanks for posting.

Just think, Ray, you could be a Sota goat yourself. Find a nice drive-up and give everyone a thrill. EL

 

There will be four of us on a summit in the Catskills on Sunday. Watch for updated frequencies as we go on air around 1500 UTC. http://www.sotawatch.org/summits.php?summit=W2/GC-026

 

Damn. Packed weekend here but I want to start chasing SOTA stations. I'll try to hop down to the shack to chase some of y'all down

 

No need to wait until a SOTA Weekend to get started. There are SOTA activations taking place every day of the week. Just check SOTAWatch to see where & when the action is taking place.
