Dear #pota hunters,

There is a POTA listed park near my QTH (FR-2309).

I am not interested in contesting nor any kind of award, but if I want
to allow hunters to get points for this park, do I need to create an
account on https://pota.apps before trying some QSOs (#ssb to start with)?

TU and 72

@zelf >This study explores the development and implementation of Peer-for-Peer (P4P) networks, a family of open-source, peer-to-peer, and local-first communication protocols. Rooted in the principles of complexity theory and an ontological basis in complex realism, the research examines how small, modular, and community-driven infrastructures can serve as adaptive solutions in response to ecological, social, and technological crises. Through a mixed-methods approach, including interviews with nine case studies and an in-person workshop, the study identifies design principles that enable resilience and sustainability in P4P ecosystems. Findings highlight the critical role of modularity—both technical and social—in fostering self-organization, adaptability, and mutual aid within decentralized networks. The study also introduces the concept of "nested isomorphism," revealing how the structural patterns of technical systems influence the organizational structures that develop them. P4P protocols, such as Willow, Mapeo, and Scuttlebutt, demonstrate the viability of localized and distributed communication infrastructures that prioritize user agency and digital sovereignty. These systems challenge the colonial structures of global internet infrastructure by empowering communities to build and maintain their own resilient networks. This research contributes to complexity theory by expanding the understanding of self-organizing systems and isomorphic tendencies of technical and organizational structures. The research presents a framework for designing future communication infrastructures that align with principles of sustainability and inclusivity. The implications of these findings extend to the fields of open-source development, decentralized networks, and adaptive infrastructure design, offering pathways toward a more equitable and resilient digital future.

Well shit! That sounds really interesting!

Yesterday I had what I believe were 4 ficticios callsigns (2) CW #MorseCode (2) #SSB during my #POTA activation. I understand loss of hearing can be part of the aging process and I'm hoping this is the case with this QSO. Help me out here folks. Am I losing my hearing?

Note ........
Operator in this posts has been correctly verified as November Two Tango Kilo Tango N2TKT. Not what I heard but oh well

HNY! This evening, just before 4pm PST, we will be on the air doing #SOTA for the New Year UTC rollover. With W7MTB and N7OLE, please work all of us. After 4pm we'll be sharing the station working #SSB and passing the mic around until we are too cold. Hope to get y'all in the log!
