Beaches On The Air
Beaches on the Air (BOTA) is an international radiosport award program that encourages licensed amateur radio operators to visit, enjoy and operate portable equipment on beaches, respecting other beach users and local regulations.[1] BOTA issues awards to participants based on criteria including the total number of contacts, contacts made on each amateur radio band, and for different modes of communication including voice, Morse code or FT8. BOTA was established with the support of an international group of universities, EUROSCI Network, which collaborate on educational technologies.[2]
