IMO, POTA contains more of the true ORIGINAL spirit of field day than the FD we have today. POTA usually puts the operator out in the public eye and not in some secluded wooded area with air conditioned trailers far away from everyone. POTA also uses a minimum of equipment and therefore deploys extremely quickly which is an invaluable skill for emergency ops, vs an entire day of orchestrated setup like many clubs do on FD. I am very glad that we have POTA and can do it 365 days out of the year, not just one. 73

How about doing a City POTA in a city park with your club. As a Hunter, you can promote your club and Ham Radio to your city. In our area on Saturday, the city parks are hosting farmers' markets.
