Amateurs throughout the US are being urged to sign up and activate parts of the famous Appalachian Trail in the nation’s East Coast. The trail has six national parks, eight national forests, more than 40 SOTA summits and over 65 state parks and forests with POTA designations. This is the event’s second year and it’s a dramatic way to get hams out of their shacks and into the woods and on trails during a most colourful and beautiful time of year in this region of the United States.
Chasers around the world will be listening but right now hams are simply signing up since the event is not until 1st and 2nd October 2022. The event was inspired by the experiences of one ham, Mike WB2FUV, who lives in the mountain region of northern NYS and fell in love with operating QRP there.
