Planning Your Next Activation
To plan your next activation we recommend looking at the BunkerDashboard for maps including pins to show previous activations and unactivated bunkers (ATNO – All Time New Ones). If you are planning your first activation you may find the guide on this site (see top menu – coming soon) helpful.
Logbook Compatibility
A note on paper logs
Digital logging is not required to enjoy UKBOTA. Some activators and hunters prefer to use paper logs. Many of them later transfer their log data to BunkerBase to take advantage of its powerful features.
The import and autofill assumes you are using a standardized ADIF file especially regarding which ADIF fields are used for for bunkers. Note: there is no dedicated or permanent ADIF field allocated for Bunkers.
The standard solution is to use the following fields:
my_sig_info – your bunker(s). This is where you bunker is enetered.
sig_info – the other station’s bunker(s), in the case of activators this means for a B2B QSO.
Examples of correct bunker references:
✅ B/G-1000
✅ B/GM-0028
Examples of incorrect bunker references
❌BG-1000
❌ B/GM-028
UKBOTA recommend Ham2K Portable Logger for activators – this software will create a properly structured ADIF file.
