Join all of ARRL� The National Association for Amateur Radio[1]�'s volunteers
on December 31, 2023, from 0000 - 2359 UTC, for the last day of the yearlong
Volunteers On the Air (VOTA) operating event for your final chance to get some
VOTA points.�Last week's�Red Badges on the Air for VOTA[2]�was a hit, and ARRL
wants to do one final push to cap off the year of operating that acknowledged
and honored the service of volunteers to the amateur radio community.�

There are no more W1AW/ portable operations scheduled for the year, but
operators at ARRL Headquarters have the�Hiram Percy Maxim Memorial Station[3]
active on weekdays, so there is still a chance to earn 100 points per band-mode
for contacting ham radio's most famous call sign. Plus, listen for W1AW during
VOTA: Badges on the Air, as it will be active in the event. Remember to
download your certificate after the event is over. The link to generate it can
be found�here[4].�

The�VOTA leaderboard[5]�is quite impressive. See the top scores on the VOTA web
page.
