This vid is so helpful for many who have wanted to try pota amd need some examples of what to do. Im still in my first year of pota'ing and i have some high anxiety for calling cq because the pileups make me nervous and i dont like dissapointing people who are trying to get in. Because of my hard of hearing (too many years in the music business) and my nervous dyslexia i feel like im too slow or too awkward when working pileups. Im sure ill out-grow that feeling, but for now 99% of my potas are me going to a park and hunting other activators or trying to make random contacts to make my minimum 10. I'm all SSB. Have not tried pota via ft8 or cw yet. Thanks for this helpful vid. Cheers and 73!

WOW! This is like the perfect example of exactly how to hook someone into ham radio. None of that "oh you gotta take this exam" or "well the HF bands are the frequencies of 3 to 30 MHz, which have very different propagation methods per frequency due to the effects of ionospheric refraction that is affected by various solar and geomagnetic blabhablabhablhablh." Nah man, just get their butt in front of a radio, show them the buttons to hit, and work freakin HUNGARY! Show the passion, the excitement, and the adrenaline of never knowing what's going to be on the other end. That's amazing dude. I'm gonna borrow this video for YOTA presentations.

The tuner will tune just about anything you throw at it too so a 9:1 antenna is great with it for all bands. I hope you have fun and maybe we'll catch you on the air. Could even be a Park to Park!

Hi Mike your neighbour looks like your brother. Love the POTA videos just started the POTA bug in the last two weeks. I have a park right in my door step no word of a lie 500m in a straight line. It’s never been activated so this weekend it will be. Conningbrook Lakes Country Park G-0377 51.1532, 0.903518 (JO01kd) POTA has just reinvigorated me now in retirement to get out and see the countryside. Thanks. Go easy on some of the guys in Mail Bag Monday. We all have feelings. 73’s
