If you are or were a Parks On The Air @ParksOnTheAir (POTA) activator, then most likely you were hunted by Jerry AD0BK. Unfortunately Jerry became a silent key on 12/31/2023. During his time as a POTA hunter, he made contact with activators in 6369 parks, made 37703 QSOs and last hunted a bunch of parks on 12/30/2023. All the way to the end.
Jerry will be greatly missed on the air.
Rest In Peace, Jerry AD0BC/SK.
73.

Q: What is Parks On The Air?
A: Parks On The Air (or POTA) for international portable amateur radio (ham radio) operations that promote emergency awareness and communications from national/federal and state/provincial level parks.
There are activators and there are hunters. Activators go into POTA approved parks, set up their amateur radio equipment and call CQ (CQ is an invitation for any amateur radio operators listening on that frequency to respond and make contact). Hunters will contact the activators and upon a successful contact, the activator puts the hunter into their logs that will be uploaded to calling area representatives who will then upload those logs to the POTA system. Hunters do not need to upload any logs.
Q: What are the Parks On The Air rules?
A: The rules for Parks On The Air can be found at parksontheair.com/rules .
Q: What are the Parks On The Air frequencies?
A: Any frequency that an amateur radio operator has permission to legally use in their country based upon their level of license. Repeaters cannot be used. More info can be found at parksontheair.com/faq .
