My Son's First POTA | Parks on the Air from Little Talbot State Park Florida US-0634

Experience a special Parks on the Air (POTA) activation as my son takes the mic for his first ever POTA operation at Little Talbot State Park, Florida. This family-friendly ham radio adventure highlights the excitement of introducing the next generation to amateur radio, outdoor communications, and portable HF operations in a real field environment. In this video, we set up a complete POTA station in the park and demonstrate how accessible and fun ham radio in the field can be. From antenna deployment to making real HF radio contacts (QSOs), this activation is perfect for ham radio operators, campers, overlanders, RVers, hikers, fishermen, road trippers, and outdoorsmen interested in off-grid communication and emergency preparedness. Watch as we explore radio propagation, portable antenna setups, and field station configuration, all while enjoying the beautiful surroundings of Little Talbot State Park (POTA US-0634). This is more than just a radio activation—it’s about family, learning, mentoring, and building skills in amateur radio operations. If you’re interested in POTA hunting and activating, portable ham radio setups, beginner-friendly field operations, and outdoor adventure communication, this video is a great example of how ham radio brings people together across generations in the great outdoors.
