Not all Parks On The Air @ParksOnTheAir (POTA) activations are easy or quick. Band conditions and space weather can be one thing that makes activations tough sometimes. When things get tough, PUSH ON! Keep going forward. Accomplish the task & finish your goal. This POTA activation is from US-1743 White Clay Creek State Park @DelawareStateParks17 US-0898 White Clay Creek National Wild & Scenic River @NationalParkService in Newark, Delaware at the Carpenter Recreation Area location (this location is not a 3fer, just a 2fer). Watch the video to see everything that happened!

Thank you to the all of the hunters and fellow activators for the contacts!

New POTA-themed QSL cards are IN! QSL info can be found on my QRZ page.

ALL amateur radio operators world-wide need to know the DX CODE OF CONDUCT. It was meant for DX contacts, but it really applies to ALL aspects of amateur radio (DXing, contesting, POTA, SOTA, Field Day, special events, etc...). DON'T BE AN ALPHA HOTEL!
