I’d love to see a “ROTA”: Relays On The Air.

One of the beautiful adjacent benefits amateur radio has greatly benefitted from in POTA/SOTA is that it gets us out of the hamshack to do real-world field exercises, resulting in the miniaturization of everything from Morse keys to antenna setups, but something important we don’t really practice enough are radio relays.

We hold our hobby out as an additional means of communication for EMCOMM, something like ROTA might also supercharge our corps.
