VE3IPS Parks on the Air POTA
Parks on the Air (POTA) is an amateur radio program that encourages operators to set up their equipment in parks, wildlife reserves, and other natural areas to make radio contacts. It combines the enjoyment of the outdoors with the excitement of amateur radio communication. Participants typically bring portable radios, antennas, and power sources to operate from these locations and make contacts with other operators around the world.
As a portable field operator involved in POTA, John VE3IPS likely enjoys the challenges and rewards of operating in outdoor environments, experiencing different locations, and making contacts with fellow radio enthusiasts. This hobby provides an opportunity to combine a love for amateur radio with a passion for nature and exploration.
