I have downloaded SOTA Goat app from App Store and updated summits database. Unfortunately the app does not show Shunut in it’s listing (as well as several other summits in R9U/CE assosiation) although the summit is in the database on the official SOTA web site. Hopefully the author will correct this, otherwise 4 $ spent for nothing.
It is not me on the picture above. It is my friend Igor who helped me a lot.
Electric power was coming from 25Ah LiFePo4 battery which also was feeding MSI laptop for CW and logging. Two modes were used - CW on 14060 and SSB on 14305. There were no fast internet connection so I could only spot myself through W9PA cluster couple of times.
In 1 hour 10 minutes I have managed to log 47 CW an 31 SSB QSO before the rain clouds arrived.
Many people were asking for my RDA as well. Signals were strong and reports were up to 59 plus with most of the correspondents. The only problem was very strong wind up on the summit. I have made several pictures and will try to publish them here. Thanks to all who called and worked me. I hope to do better next time.
You can update the summits database in SOTA Goat from the “Settings” page. You need to do that from time to time as this app does not currently do it for itself.
Igor, there was a small update done to R9U/CE last evening (31-aug-16) to correct some summits names. You can try another database update on your app and see if that fixes the problem. If it doesn’t then mail the app author.
Please go to http://www.sotadata.org.uk/ to upload your activator’s log. You will need to log on (which is a separate login from the other SOTA sites) . You can then enter the log line by line or you can upload a CSV file.
When you have done that it will have doubled the number of summits activated in R9U/CE !
Thank you Simon. Uploading is done. I have got my first 4 activator points
Pity standard formats like ADIF, CABRILLO or EDI are not supported. Making TSV file takes time. Is there a tool that converts some of the above formats into CSV or TSV?
