IS IT POSSIBLE TO BE "POTA READY"!? #hamradio #pota #parksontheair

I recently had a conversation with someone saying that he wasn't ready to make his first "CQ POTA activation"...although he was already activating by hunting park to park contacts FROM A PARK that is in the POTA database!

In this video, I share my thoughts on if I think it is really possible to ever be "POTA Ready", or not, or are you possibly overthinking your first POTA activation?

If you are a veteran Parks On The Air activator or Parks On The Air Hunter, feel free to drop some advice for the hams looking to make their first POTA activation go smoother, in the comments section below!
