Hi all our next SOTA/ POTA activation will be Mount Agamenticus in York Maine. A club member recommended this one to me. They have recently redone the parking areas at the base and up at the end of the auto road so i’m eager to check it out. here’s a link for directions to Mount Aggy.  on the right-hand column of that page, you will find a link to a map of Mount Aggy as well.

Parking is a bit different in Maine. They may have a way of paying cash but the way they talk about it on the website is via an app on your phone called Pango. I’ll try to get more info before the membership meeting on this.

My plan is to meet at 11:00 at the parking area at the summit. I used street view and couldn’t find picnic tables. But there was a lot of open space, So to have a comfortable spot to operate I would recommend bringing a folding chair and table to operate from. below is a pic i took of my operating position on Mount Kearsarge in June with my tripod for my antenna just in the corner of the pic.

I will likely bring the same radio I used on Mount  Kearsarge a qrp 6-meter rig. It was rough starting out but picked up later in the day.

I will put a reminder in the forums once this story hits the website, Any cancellations resulting from dangerous weather conditions (which we have had a lot of lately) will be in the forums. It is the quickest way to disseminate information besides email which you can certainly send me and I will email you the latest information at [email protected].

Hope to see you on Mount Agamenticus!
