Knowledge Base Article - Exploring The World of POTA and SOTA
POTA (Parks on the Air) and SOTA (Summits on the Air) are two different amateur radio programs that encourage operators to bring portable radio equipment to the great outdoors.
By ‘activating’ in designated areas, amateur radio enthusiasts can satisfy their technical interests while enjoying the natural beauty of the UK landscape. With different rules and entry requirements for both, each programme offers a distinct challenge and appeal.
Our latest Knowledge Base article provides an overview of these activities, with tips for anyone thinking of getting involved and details the Icom Amateur radio equipment best suited for POTA and SOTA activities.
