Summits on the Air (SOTA) Presentation
An online presentation given by me on Friday 7th April 2017 for Chertsey Radio Club - An introduction to Summits on the Air (my experiences as a UK operator). This is a recording of the Webex session provided by the organiser, James (M0JFP) with my local audio dubbed over the online recording. The information presented in this video is also available in written form at my website, www.peanutpower.co.uk/sota My thanks to the SOTA community for highlighting any errors or omissions. Please note the following: SOTA is open to SWL too. While an Activator can only earn points for a summit once a year a chaser can earn the points for a summit once a day (at ~05:00 I imply that a chaser can only earn points for a summit once a year and that is incorrect). The SOTA Maps site has a direct link at http://www.sotamaps.org/. The SOTAMaps also has the functionality to provide contour/height data. It's a rich resource of information...click on all the options to explore!
