HRWB 191 - SOTA and Adventure Radio with Rex KE6MT
Manage episode 378646809 series 2394206
In this episode we talk with Rex, KE6MT, the SOTA (Summits On The Air) program manager for California. Rex gives us an update on the SOTA program and why you should be interested in this great aspect of ham radio. In the last segment we talk about the Wilderness Protocol and how, while it's a good start, its just not very practical. We define a new proposal called the Adventure Radio Protocol which uses CTCSS tones to signal various type of activity on the air on a common frequency of 146.580 MHz. Of course, as a HRWB episode, we also turn this into a hardware project that is a PCB that can handle the tone decoding and alerting. The Adventure Radio board can be used at a base station, remote receiver or on a repeater system to alert listeners for traffic or emergencies.
