Parks on the Air ®
Parks on the Air (POTA), is an international Radiosport for portable amateur radio operators. POTA Activators establish mobile communications from national/federal or state/provincial level parks. POTA Hunters establish communications with Activators from anywhere (home, vehicle, or from another POTA park). For more information visit the Parks on the Air website.
