Planned ops

No ops planned right now. Yours could be first on the list.

Plan an op

Planning is optional. You can host an op any time without one; a plan just tells chasers when to listen. Send PLAN to OTA with a time, like PLAN 2026-08-14T21:00Z, followed by a short description of where you will be. You can have up to 3 plans at a time, each no more than 7 days out. Send UNPLAN with the same time to withdraw one.

Host your own

Send HOST to OTA followed by a short description of where you are, then beacon your position within 5 minutes, over RF. You are on the air for 60 minutes, and every QSO adds time.
