HUmpS Log



Summits with >100m prominence

As well as the usual SOTA summits, I've started collecting these too, a lot of the local ones are hills which I'd normally have gone up if I wasn't trying to get those activator points.

No official programme so I'm making my own rules up, just to decide which ones I keep a record of:

1)'Activation' must be within 25m vertical metres of the summit

2)No operation from vehicles or mains electric

3)As nobody's getting any points for this, the rules about 4 QSOs, one activation per year etc. don't apply.

4)No repeaters, internet etc.

A list of the HuMPS summits can be found here
