M1CJE - SOTA Mountain Goat

10/02/2020 • General

Congratulations to club member Andrew Eastland, M1CJE, who has achieved the accolade of SOTA Mountain Goat.  This is the principal award in the Summits on the Air scheme and marks passing through 1,000 activator points.

Andrew reached his Mountain Goat status with an activation of Black Mountain GW/SW-041 in January 2020.

He started his SOTA journey on Pen y Fan GW/SW-001 in September 2017, and so has reached Mountain Goat status in less than two-and-a-half years, which is relatively quick!

Well done Andrew!
