ARLA/CLUSTER: No SOTA, você não necessita de potencia quando está no alto de uma montanha.

[João Costa > CT1FBF]

You don't need power when you have altitude

October 22nd 2016 will see an increase in *Summits on the Air* activity
between Europe and Australasia.

As has been the case for the last few years, a special event is being
organised by *Andrew VK1AD* and *Mike 2E0YYY* to coincide with the
improving radio propagation conditions.

This "S2S" (Summit to Summit) 'all mode' CW, SSB, Data, and even FM, event
already has commitments from VK, ZL, G, GM, DL, ON, F and OE stations with
other European stations expected to join in the climb to the top of
mountains in each region. These "activators" aim to make as many "S2S"
contacts as possible with other hams on SOTA summits in Europe and
Australasia.

The timing will be from 06:30 UTC for about two hours and is planned to
coincide with long path propagation between Europe and "down under." Around
the same time, short path communications between Europe and North America
is often possible. So if some SOTA activators in North America could listen
out from a night time accessible SOTA summit, this activity has the chance
to create a World-Wide Summit to Summit event this year.

Most stations will be running low power with simple omni-directional
antennas, so this event also aims to show just what can be achieved with
limited equipment from a location with a low noise floor.
