October Meeting Program

SOTA!

Adrian, N6ZA, will be talking about the SOTA (Summits on

the Air) program. Adrian is the President of BARC, the

Bishop Amateur Radio Club as well the W6 area

coordinator for SOTA

SOTA is an award scheme for radio amateurs and

shortwave listeners that encourages portable operation in

mountainous areas. SOTA has been carefully designed to

make participation possible for everyone - this is not just for

mountaineers! There are awards for activators (those who

ascend to the summits) and chasers (who either operate

from home, a local hilltop or are even Activators on other

summits).

SOTA is now fully operational in many countries across the world. Each country has its own

Association which defines the recognized SOTA summits within that Association. Each summit earns

the activators and chasers a score which is related to the height of the summit. Certificates are

available for various scores, leading to the prestigious "Mountain Goat" and "Shack Sloth" trophies.

An Honor Roll for Activators and Chasers is maintained at the SOTA online database.
