New to Bunker Spotting? Here’s a Quick Guide!

If you’re just getting started with posting activations, here’s a simple breakdown of how to get your spot out there:

 Option 1: Self-Spot using Ham2K PoLo

This is the easiest and most powerful option. When you self-spot your activation using the Ham2K PoLo portable logger, it’ll automatically send your spot to:

– The Ham2K Spots List
– The WWBOTA Cluster
– Our WWBOTA Spots & Alerts WhatsApp Channel
– www.fieldspotter.radio

 Option 2: Spot Directly on the WWBOTA Website Cluster

Head over to https://wwbota.org/clusterwithmap/ or select ‘Cluster’ from the menu on the top of this page, and pop your spot onto the cluster (you’ll need to register first, this is not the same as your UKBOTA registration). This will also auto-share your activation to:

– The WhatsApp Spots & Alerts Channel
– www.fieldspotter.org

 Option 3: Post Straight into the WhatsApp Spots & Alerts Channel

If your internet isn’t playing ball and you can’t access the cluster, just drop your spot directly into the WhatsApp group. It works — but just a heads-up: this won’t forward your spot anywhere else.

Best bet? Use Option 1 or 2 if you can — they reach the most people automatically.

And of course, you’re always welcome to share your spot manually in other radio chat groups or the main DX Cluster.

 Lost your WWBOTA cluster password? No problem — just ping one of the team and we’ll get it reset for you.

Enjoy the activations & have fun out there!
