009 - My First Parks On The Air (POTA) Park Activation

Update: 2024-10-14

Description

I'm deeply grateful for the incredible gift Mark Volstad (AI4BJ) gave me today. Mark reached out midweek, offering to assist with my first official POTA Park Activation using his own gear. This episode captures the excitement of this milestone in my amateur radio journey.

This episode is lengthy and includes all 102 QSOs made during my first POTA Park activation.

For a deeper understanding of Parks On The Air, I recommend watching this informative video.
