Finally, DA20XOTA QRTed on December 31, 2024 with 252 QSOs from DL/MF-082.
We logged a total of 13.5k QSOs and had a lot of fun radioing from the German Alps.
Below is a brief summary of the activated references + 2x LOTA. Thanks, Martin, DF3MC, for the summary!
It was a one-year experiment and a unique experience for our small but very active and passionate SOTA-DL team. We tried and learned a lot! We have given out 80 DA20XOTA awards, and we have set a worldwide record with our “follow the sun” action:
Follow the sun with DA20XOTA and earn an award

A big BIG thank you to ALL chasers for all the fun you gave us!
The SOTA era of alpine amateur radio activities began with the launching of the German alpine SOTA association (SOTA-DL Deutsche Alpen) in 2004, and this glorious SOTA era ended in 2024.
