My first POTA… check it out 👉 ruclips.net/video/VCyoYBT8kuU/видео.html
Very nice Hayden, I vividly remember my first POTA. Nearly killed the car battery, and I also lost a USB GPS receiver in the grass, only to find it a week later. Still worked even after getting rained on! 73 de W8IJC.
Nice Andrew! I hope you can get back to activating soon!
Well done guys great Video. Love both systems and as an activator it’s all about getting out, playing radio having a chat and having fun. Awesome work. 73.
Thanks Tony, how was your POTA expedition??
Thanks Tony. Looking forward to catching up when you and Brian are back from your U.S. trip to Dayton.
Fantastic presentation and discussion! POTA profiles and awards section was an eye opener and extremely informative. I am officially a POTA hunter and currently assembling parts for my journey to POTA activation. Keep up the great 👍 work .
Thanks mate, glad you got value out of the presentation, cheers!
Great discussion and information - especially for me as a new ham!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
Activating parks is a lot of fun. Even is you have only 20m/70cm you should be able to find parks that are close to cities/towns where there are other ham’s close enough to work.
Still waiting to hear from you Marty about ZLFF !!
POTA very alive here in ZL.
Cheers
Hi Roly, ZL4KD was your ZLFF coordinator but Paul VK5PAS has now taken over as the coordinator for ZLFF. Please reach out to him. It is great that POTA is going well in NZ!
@@maddogshamradio3407 I have reached out to Paul several times to no avail sorry Marty.
very nice I like it,Pieter
I have currently activated 21 of the 29 POTA Parks in the Auckland Region.......
Awesome Roly! I have a few more POTA parks to catch up
I’ve hunted you in a few of them. Now that HamAlert has an official POTA trigger I have setup that up when ZL1BQD activates a POTA park it alerts me, so hopefully I’ll be able to hunt more of your activations.
Would be great to have Paul Simmonds VK3PAS on your show Hayden to take us through VKFF as well... Unfortunately... I believe there has been some banter being exchanged when POTA commenced in the midst of KFF already operating in the USA... hope that the introduction of POTA downunder doesn't disrupt VKFF in VK/ZL...
Thanks mate, I'll have to ask Paul
Great info m7gnr
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you
The POTA apps from the Google store sux. They kept crashing. I finally Uninstalled them. I notice now they removed them. Someone needs to fix them and re-release them.
