ARLA/CLUSTER: Atividade SOTA cresce na Australia

[João Costa > CT1FBF]

Summits on the Air activity growing in VK

SOTA activity has continued to increase in April with new summits
activators, operators activating for the first time and more operators
joining the SOTA chase.

Summits activated include Mt Cope in the Victorian high country; Mt
Langi Ghiran, Mt Abrupt and Mt Sturgeon in and near the Grampians and
no less than 5 summits within 2 metre range of Melbourne.

Chasers have come from most call areas of VK and a good number from
Europe. Life may be too short for QRP, but QRP is making it to Europe
on 20 metres.

Efforts are continuing to bring SOTA activations to summits in VK1, 2
and 5. If you would like to help out or simply just find out more,

If you would like to know more about SOTA, and are in Melbourne, the
EMDRC are having a SOTA presentation by Wayne Merry VK3WAM next
Friday, the 18th of May. All are welcome to attend this meeting,
starting at 8pm in the EMDRC club rooms at Milpara Scout Hall, 13A
McCubbin St. Burwood.
