22 years of SOTA, what a time. I haven’t been around that long myself. My first activator QSO was in February 2016 and my first chaser QSO in September 2010 (I didn’t realize what kind of QSO I had until many years later… 
). I would never have thought that amateur radio - especially SOTA - would play such an important role in my hobby. Since then, SOTA has accompanied me whenever I’m on the road. Be it alone or with my family. A really nice and exciting amateur radio program with an interesting community of like-minded people.
Thanks to the organizers (Management Team) who provide technical support for the entire program and make it available to us and those who keep the program running… the many activators and chasers - we keep the program active and interesting. Cheers, to (at least) another 22 years
