Baseball Double Play and POTA?



Baseball Double Play and POTA?


Β 

I know you are wondering what does a baseball double play have to do with (POTA) Parks on the Air.Β  Let me briefly explain my introduction into Parks on the Air.Β 

During the Pandemic shutdown I stumbled upon Parks on the Air (POTA), Summits on the Air (SOTA) and shortly thereafter World Wide Flora & Fauna (WWFF).Β  Information on the first two were readily available as it related to me here in the U.S.Β  However, at face value, all I could conceive about WWFF from YouTube videos; that it was an organization dedicated to countries outside of the U.S.Β  What a HUGE MISCONCEPTION.Β  Once I delved further; I learned WWFF was Worldwide just as POTA and SOTA. Since becoming a POTA activator in 2021, there are few POTA sites near my QTH that are part of WWFF which I've included in my POTA activations.

Fast forward to a couple of weeks ago while going through my YouTube Amateur Radio recommendations I came upon a video by Stuart VE9CF "This One Thing Often Overlooked By Almost All POTA Operators".Β Β 



In Stuart's YouTube video, he explains how some POTA activators overlook the relationship between POTA and WWFF and how to combine the two, just like you would with POTA and SOTA.Β 

Now, where does the Baseball Double Play analogy come into play. There are thousands of POTA sites that are part of the WWFF network. With those POTA sites you can combine those WWFF sites and POTA sites for a Double Play.Β  Thanks to Stuart (VE9CF), I wanted to pass along to those who may be unaware of the relationship with POTA and WWFF.Β  Find out more about Stuart's Ham Radio experiences on his YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@outnaboot and his website:Β https://www.outnaboot.ca/
