Good point!
Sorry to hijack the thread, but there are alternatives to spotting over satellite, in case you (@M0GQC) just want to spot where there is no cell coverage.
Apart of APRS, there is a new clever and reliable way to spot that only needs your smartphone and your HF transceiver (and its microphone).
The solution consist of an app called SOTAmāt that is available for Android and iOS (I only tried it with Android).
You have to preconfigure your SOTA region, your modes and frequencies beforehand. It now also allows to define call sign prefixes and suffixes and UK call signs, depending on the region you’re activating. Once this configuration is done, it’s actually easier to spot than using APRS, at least for me.
There is a thread that discusses it in more detail:
Since you’re a YouTuber, two videos are available that show it live:
N1CLC using a KX2: https://youtu.be/8_d4eHfHFTQ?t=1017s
Me using a TX-500: https://youtu.be/KIDvvyLVSo0?t=77s
Maybe a topic for a future video for your great YouTube channel?
