Post date December 16, 2024

Amateur Radio is defined by its advances, and how we utilize and employ new technologies. One fact of the hobby that has been slow to adopt this is all the operating support systems, such as logbooks, awards platforms, and contact analytics systems.

Post date December 7, 2024

It is hard to believe that the Parks on the Air (POTA) program is only 6 years old considering the popularity of this radio sport having over 50,000 registered users and over 500,000 participants. POTA continues to grow exponentially as operators combine outdoor exploration with radio communication.
