Summits on the Air

Summits on the Air (SOTA) is an award scheme for radio amateurs and shortwave listeners that encourages portable operation in mountainous areas. SOTA has been carefully designed to make participation possible for everyone - this is not just for mountaineers! There are awards for activators (those who ascend to the summits) and chasers (who remain in the warmth of their radio shacks!).

The contain a list of qualifying summits, together with their locations. Each summit earns the activators and chasers a score which is related to the height of the summit. Certificates are available for various scores, leading to the prestigious "Mountain Goat" and "Shack Sloth" plaques. An Honour Roll for Activators and Chasers is maintained at the SOTA web site.

SOTA is designed to be compatible with other mountain users. Please see our for details.

How to start participating?

Association Manuals and Rules can be downloaded in PDF format from the page.

Activators need a radio station that is portable - operation from cars is not allowed! All bands and modes can be used - a 2m FM handy is ideal for a start! Chasers simply need a normal home station. Visit our page for details of how to join the SOTA community and keep abreast of summit expeditions and other vital information.

, Gary G0HJQ,

Hadde ikke dette v???rt en aktivitet for Norge?
Vi har jo ikke akkurat mangel p??? fjelltopper her til lands.
Men vi trenger jo noen til ??? st??? for administreringen og godkjenningen av fjelltopper. Kanskje et innlegg i Amat???rradio om dette hadde v???rt noe?
IOTA har jo blitt en suksess, jeg tror at SOTA - Summits On The Air har et stort potensiale.
For mer informasjon se her:
SOTA?er ogs??? en perfekt aktivitet for Field Day, et fint alternativ til de vanlige Field Day'ene inne i byen.
