My apologies to the Rawhide song. Hi. de KL7QR Jim Phoenix AZ #POTA #HamRadio #AmateurRadio #SupportYourParks #GetRadioActive #parksontheair POTA Parody: "Parkside" Rollin', rollin', rollin' Rollin', rollin', rollin' Rollin', rollin', rollin' Rollin', rollin', rollin' Parkside! Hah! Hah! Keep rollin', rollin', rollin', Though the bands are roarin', Keep those signals soarin', Parkside! Through static, noise, and weather, Chasin' contacts, come whatever, Wishin' my rig was fully charged. All the things I'm missin', Cold drinks, shade, and listenin', Are waitin' at the end of my log! Set 'em up, call 'em out, Call 'em out, set 'em up, Set 'em up, call 'em out, Parkside! QSO, work 'em quick, Work 'em quick, log 'em in, Log 'em in, QSO, Parkside! Keep movin', movin', movin', Though the QRM's disapprovin', Keep those antennas movin', Parkside! Don't try to tune 'em, Just string 'em up and use 'em, Soon we'll be QSO-ing high and wide. My heart's calculatin', Ten contacts are waitin', Waitin' for my POTA log to file! Set 'em up, call 'em out, Call 'em out, set 'em up, Set 'em up, call 'em out, Parkside! QSO, work 'em quick, Work 'em quick, log 'em in, Log 'em in, QSO, Parkside! Rollin', rollin', rollin', Though the bugs are swarmin', Keep those CQ calls a-stormin', Parkside! Hah! Hah! When the bands are fadin', And the sun's a-blazin', We'll pack the gear and end the ride. My log's completin', POTA points I'm meetin', Activated at the end of my ride! Rollin', rollin', rollin', Rollin', rollin', rollin', Hah! Rollin', rollin', rollin', Hah! Parkside! Hah! Parkside!

#POTA #HamRadio #AmateurRadio #SupportYourParks #GetRadioActive #parksontheair To POTA or Not to POTA To POTA, or not to POTA, that is the question: Whether 'tis nobler in the park to suffer The static and QRM of outrageous fortune, Or to take arms against a pile-up of stations, And by transmitting, work them? To QSO, to log— No more; and by a log to say we end The heartache, and the thousand natural shocks That RF is heir to: 'tis a consummation Devoutly to be wish’d. To QSO, to log— To log, perchance to chase; ay, there’s the rub, For in that log of contacts, what DX may come, When we have shuffled off this mortal band, Must give us pause—there’s the respect That makes calamity of so long a hike. For who would bear the whips and scorns of propagation, Th’ antenna’s tangle, the coax’s cruel kink, The pangs of fading signals, the band’s delay, The insolence of skip, and the spurns That patient merit of th’ unworthy QRN takes, When he himself might his activation make With a mere dipole? Who would batteries bear, To grunt and sweat under a scorching sun, But that the dread of some forgotten code, The undiscover’d country from whose bourn No signal returns, puzzles the will, And makes us rather bear those ills we have Than call CQ to others that we know not of? Thus conscience does make cowards of us all; And thus the native hue of resolution Is sicklied o’er with the pale cast of doubt, And activations of great pith and moment With this regard their currents turn awry, And lose the name of action.—Soft you now! The fair QSO! Nymph, in thy logbook Be all my contacts remember’d.

To POTA or Not to POTA

To POTA, or not to POTA, that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the park to suffer
The static and QRM of outrageous fortune,
Or to take arms against a pile-up of stations,
And by transmitting, work them? To QSO, to log—
No more; and by a log to say we end
The heartache, and the thousand natural shocks
That RF is heir to: 'tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wish’d. To QSO, to log—
To log, perchance to chase; ay, there’s the rub,
For in that log of contacts, what DX may come,
When we have shuffled off this mortal band,
Must give us pause—there’s the respect
That makes calamity of so long a hike.

For who would bear the whips and scorns of propagation,
Th’ antenna’s tangle, the coax’s cruel kink,
The pangs of fading signals, the band’s delay,
The insolence of skip, and the spurns
That patient merit of th’ unworthy QRN takes,
When he himself might his activation make
With a mere dipole? Who would batteries bear,
To grunt and sweat under a scorching sun,
But that the dread of some forgotten code,
The undiscover’d country from whose bourn
No signal returns, puzzles the will,
And makes us rather bear those ills we have
Than call CQ to others that we know not of?

Thus conscience does make cowards of us all;
And thus the native hue of resolution
Is sicklied o’er with the pale cast of doubt,
And activations of great pith and moment
With this regard their currents turn awry,
And lose the name of action.—Soft you now!
The fair QSO! Nymph, in thy logbook
Be all my contacts remember’d.

POTA Comfortably Numb #POTA #HamRadio #AmateurRadio #SupportYourParks #GetRadioActive Hello? (Hello? Hello?) Is there any POTA out there? Just log if you can hear me Is there any activator home? Come on now I hear your signal's fading out Well, I can boost your gain Get you back on the air again Relax I'll need some QSL info first Just the basic bands Can you show me where the static hurts? There is no QRM, you are receding A distant park smoke on the horizon You are only coming through in waves Your Morse moves but I can't hear what you're saying When I was a ham, I had a fever My hands felt just like two antennas Now I've got that feeling once again I can't explain, you would not understand This is not how I QSL I have become comfortably numb Okay (okay, okay) Just a little band switch There'll be no more, ah But you may feel a little static Can you stand up? I do believe it's working, good That'll keep you going through the pileup Come on, it's time to activate There is no QRM, you are receding A distant park, smoke on the horizon You are only coming through in waves Your Morse moves but I can't hear what you're saying When I was a ham I caught a fleeting DX Out of the corner of my band I turned to tune but it was gone I cannot put my finger on it now The signal's grown The park is gone I have become comfortably numb

#POTA #HamRadio #AmateurRadio #SupportYourParks #GetRadioActive

Hello? (Hello? Hello?)

Is there any POTA out there?

Just log if you can hear me

Is there any activator home?

Come on now

I hear your signal's fading out

Well, I can boost your gain

Get you back on the air again

Relax

I'll need some QSL info first

Just the basic bands

Can you show me where the static hurts?

There is no QRM, you are receding

A distant park smoke on the horizon

You are only coming through in waves

Your Morse moves but I can't hear what you're saying

When I was a ham, I had a fever

My hands felt just like two antennas

Now I've got that feeling once again

I can't explain, you would not understand

This is not how I QSL

I have become comfortably numb

Okay (okay, okay)

Just a little band switch

There'll be no more, ah

But you may feel a little static

Can you stand up?

I do believe it's working, good

That'll keep you going through the pileup

Come on, it's time to activate

There is no QRM, you are receding

A distant park, smoke on the horizon

You are only coming through in waves

Your Morse moves but I can't hear what you're saying

When I was a ham

I caught a fleeting DX

Out of the corner of my band

I turned to tune but it was gone

I cannot put my finger on it now

The signal's grown

The park is gone

I have become comfortably numb

#pota #SupportYourParks #GetRadioActive #SupportYourParksWeekend I had a fantastic "Support Your Parks" weekend, racking up plenty of QSOs and enjoying the chase! On Saturday, I hunted down 63 POTA stations. Today (Sunday), I've already worked 40 more, bringing my weekend total to 103 parks—and it's still counting as the bands stay open. Once those logs get submitted, I'm hoping it'll push me past the 400 unique parks milestone for my next award level. Right now, I'm sitting at 395 confirmed. 73 KL7QR Jim Phoenix AZ

Picked up a new rain fly to provide some cover over the back of the #bronco and the radios when I am operating #TailgatePOTA. I found this one on Amazon for a decent price. This should work with Jeeps too. https://t.co/kyagasie9f #HamRadio #GetRadioActive #affiliatelink
