T-4 Hours Left in #WMPLOTA !!!

Walmart Retiree Terry N6AJ will be out tomorrow at several #WMPLOTA locations! Looks like he is going for the 'Called to the Office' bonus points!

Two Additional #WMPLOTA Activations! Look for Nestor N6CKC @n6ckc right at 0000z, and Bean @KC1MEB , assisted by Ant @NU1U_ant will be doing a mega rove hitting 7 different #WMPLOTA locations, including a ZOMBIE location!! wmplota.org/wmplota-activati…

Going for Bonus Points during #WMPLOTA this year? Look for Sean KX9X @SeanKutzko , Bean KC1MEB @KC1MEB and Mitch AD0HJ @AD0HJ as wildcard stations to replace missing letters that you need in the Spelling Bee!

Example of a Walmart Supercenter (#1473) and Sam's Club (#6510) next to each other. Work a satellite pass from Walmart, do another pass from Sam's Club, and take credit for activating each store. A shopper can be considered anyone you contact not operating from a Walmart entity.

Certainly one of the most epic feats of #WMPLOTA history ever. We're not worthy, indeed! 😛

Need help making your Tin Foil Hat for the Safety Officer Extra Credit Award. Bean @KC1MEB and Ant @NU1U_ant have you covered with this tutorial. Great Value tin foil is my favorite brand for keeping out those intrusive alien transmissions. Nice work! 👽 youtube.com/watch?v=CbxUy7Uh…

In 2018 Soren @Xride achieved the 'MacGyver Works at Walmart Award', Can you make a contact this year with an antenna built with parts from Walmart? @KG5CCI wanna take a run at it this year? Is Soren the sole award holder? Find out this Saturday 0000z #WMPLOTA

You got to bring the Walmart to you. "Delivery where you want it". Contacts will only be accepted for the satellite pass ± 10 minutes of when the delivery van visits. And oh gawd we need some pictures! 🚚 #WMPLOTA

There are 8,507 Walmart locations within Canada (408), Mexico (2764), and the United States (5335). Operation from any Walmart branded entity is acceptable for this upcoming #WMPLOTA event no matter whether it is a Walmart Sam's Club, Superama, or Supercentre. Take your pick! 🙂

Have you heard of the "Special Kitty" extra credit award? Activator with most Twitter posts of their cat from activated parking lots. Maybe it is time to take Digit on a road trip and pick up some Fancy Feast along with a few QSOs? Keep them cool if you attempt this one! 🐈

Are you new to Walmart Parking Lots On The Air? Wondering what it is all about? Well we got fellow amateur radio satellite operator Mitch @AD0HJ to give us a short overview of the event and his best tips and tricks. WMPLOTA Rules can be found on our Wiki: wmplota.org/wiki/index.php/W…

There is a page for Activations on the #WMPLOTA website but it is currently empty. We have tendered the services of Mister Sparky Esquire for this year's event. Will add his email to that page and you can send whatever information you have to him for inclusion. 🙉

It's either the Third Annual, Fifth Annual, or #WMPLOTA Reloaded? Pick your favorite. 😀

Announcing the 3rd (?) Annual Walmart Parking Lots on the Air. Get ready everyone! We are bringing back the wackiest amateur radio satellite operating event ever devised this Saturday, July 2nd on the 60th anniversary of Walmart's founding. 🇨🇦🇺🇸🇲🇽 wmplota.org #WMPLOTA
