During the month of December, youngsters will activate call signs with YOTA as the suffix in several IARU countries. The idea of this is to show the amateur radio hobby to youth and to encourage youngsters to be active within the hobby. If you or your club wish to host the UK call sign, please apply before Friday, 7 October to yota.month@rsgb.org.uk.
