QRP POTA from Australia. Can I get 10 contacts? Parks on the Air

Post author By admin
Post date April 26, 2022

This weekend I decided to go camping – and activate my first ever park with Parks on the Air – POTA.

The park was the South Bruny National Park (VK-0547). This park is also part of the VKFF and WWFF programs.

I had a blast – and you won’t believe the contacts I made with just 5W to a KM4ACK EFHW antenna.
