Ham Radio and Parks on the Air (POTA) activations from Oklahoma and beyond. I’m Randy, N5ILQ, a POTA Activator sharing real-world portable ham radio operations from the field. On this channel you’ll find CW and SSB QSOs, POTA activations, antenna and radio setups, and honest looks at operating portable in POTA parks. Whether you’re new to ham radio or an experienced POTA hunter or activator, this channel shows what it’s really like to get on the air from the park. Every POTA Day is a Great Day! Thanks for watching—please LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, and I’ll see you on the air.
