W7W Puget Sound S2S Party! Aug 8th @ Noon

WA7JNJ's picture

You are invited to participate in a Puget Sound SOTA Summit to Summit Party on Saturday August 8th at Noon PST (19:00 utc). All interested in SOTA are welcome, whether you're a SOTA Goat...or you are just starting on the SOTA journey. On July 12th, I was able to send an email to all W7W 2020 SOTA activators (with email in QRZ.com), and want to make sure others are aware.

The focus will be on activating SOTA summits around the Puget Sound, gaining Summit to Summit points, as well as enjoying playing radio in the mountains. We'll be using the 2M frequency 146.560, and depending on participation there will be a directed net. If interested in participating, please post a SOTA alert for 1900 UTC with a comment of "Puget Sound S2S Party". https://sotawatch.sota.org.uk/ (you'll need to register if you have not already)

If you are newer to SOTA, a few quick links for researching summits. SOTLAS has an easy to use map interface... and SOTAmaps is another great option. This website pnwSOTA.org also has summit resources in the download section, including more accessable summits. https://sotl.as/map/coordinates/47.862000,-122.253200/8.0
