 ===== Introduction =====
-This came about originally because I wanted an [[https://rsgb.org/main/beyond-exams-building-experience/brickworks/brickworks-activities/|RSGB Brickworks]] point for organising a club meeting or event. I toyed with a few ideas but it seemed like the easiest thing to do was to arrange a [[https://www.sota.org.uk/|Summits on the Air]] day for those of us who like to do such things. It was easier than arranging a detailed programme for an evening activity and any tuition required. We completed this in 2022 and I’ve decided to do it again in 2023!

It was easier than arranging a detailed programme for an evening activity and any tuition required. After completing this in 2022 & 2023 we're doing it again in 2024!
 The idea is that a bunch of OARCers will all just pile up to the top of some SOTA peaks and try to contact each other on the bands, as well as talking to other chasers and hopefully promoting OARC to the wider amateur radio community. We’ll have an S2S party, meaning “summit-to-summit” - extra points are scored for these kinds of contacts.
-Please try and promote OARC on the air, but please also don’t spam folk with it. Mostly try and have fun and score some lovely points!
+Please try and promote OARC on the air, but please also don’t spam folk with it. Mostly try and have fun and score some lovely points! If you’re an OARC member and you want to take part just edit the wiki and stick yourself on the list. If you don’t have access let me know on Discord and I can add you myself.
-We'll be targeting the same dates as the SOTA Ireland Association's Activity Weekend for this so that there'll be lots of us on the air. Most of them will be out on Saturday we think, so I've picked that for our day of fun. If you’re an OARC member and you want to take part just edit the wiki and stick yourself on the list. If you don’t have access let me know on Discord and I can add you myself.
