Anyone fancy a SLLOTA?

You may or (more likely) may not have heard about a new amateur radio ‘On The Air’ program called LLOTA, aka Lakes and Lagoons On The Air.

Anyways, it’s a bit of craic and another activity for portable enthusiasts to get stuck in to if they wish. I’ve taken on the role of Country Manager for Ireland and spent the last 62,387,912 years cleaning a public data set so I can start adding entries in to the LLOTA mapping system.

It was while doing this that I wondered if there were any summits in EI that had a lake or lagoon on them.

And sure enough…

Anyways, point being LLOTA is something you might fancy for a SLLOTA twofer (case in point above). Hope it tickles a few pickles. :blush:

The map is here, I’ve added all 183 locations (and counting, I’ve about 4400 still to do plus 88 lagoons to add) in EI and there is another user adding locations in the UK too if anyone is keen (plus worldwide as well of course)

Just thought to share in case folks might be interested is all.

And the ‘new’ kid is the xOTA family is Towers on the Air

Overlap with SOTA and POTA as lookout towers are quite often there.

Fancy a STLLOTA? :laughing:

Oddly enough I did get a TOTA reference come through the other day but I hadn’t a clue what the fella was on about so didn’t note the TOTA reference.

I’d wager there’s some SOTA/TOTA/POTA/LLOTA/WWFF multipacks available in places like Switzerland and Romania. Maybe even some COTA and CHOTA crossover too.

Do a SLLOTA as a part of a Puddle Buckley? :grinning_face:
