YOTA Month: Book Your GB25YOTA Operating

Youngsters on the Air Month takes place in December, and the RSGB would love you to take part in this annual event. Special call sign GB25YOTA will be active throughout the month. Whether you are an individual, club, school, university or social group, this is a fantastic opportunity to host the call sign and get young radio amateurs active on the amateur bands. The Society would love to see Scouts, Girlguiding and Cadet groups taking part too.

The YOTA Month Coordinator has changed the procedure for booking operating slots this year, so it is easier to see availability. Go to rsgb.org/yota-month and click on the schedule to see which slots are free. These aren’t fixed and can be adjusted to suit your timings. You’ll then need to email RSGB YOTA Month Coordinator Jamie, M0SDV, via yota.month@rsgb.org.uk to register as a GB25YOTA host and book your slot. Jamie can also help with any questions about taking part for the first time. The Society is aiming for the call sign to be hosted every day during December to enable more youngsters to have a taste of amateur radio.
