A collection of Go tools for working with SOTA (Summits on the Air) and WOTA (Wainwrights on the Air) data.

This project provides several utilities for fetching SOTA alerts and spots, converting them to WOTA format, and managing activation/chase logs via a web interface.

• Go 1.21 or later
• MySQL database (for storing WOTA data)

Install all tools directly to your $GOPATH/bin:

go install github.com/urbancamo/wota/sotaalerts@latest
go install github.com/urbancamo/wota/sotaspots@latest

1. Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/urbancamo/wota.git
cd wota

2. Download dependencies:

go mod download

3. Build all executables:

make build

Executables will be placed in the bin/ directory.

4. Or install to your $GOPATH/bin:

make install

The sotautils package includes comprehensive UK amateur radio band plan data based on RSGB 2024/2025 allocations:

import "github.com/urbancamo/wota/sotautils"

// Get band from frequency
band := sotautils.GetBandFromFrequencyMHz(14.200)  // Returns "20m"

// Check if frequency is in a specific band
inBand := sotautils.IsFrequencyInBand(7100, "40m")  // Returns true

// Get all available bands
bands := sotautils.GetAllBandNames()

// Access band plan data directly
bandInfo := sotautils.RSGBBandPlan["20m"]
fmt.Printf("%s: %.1f - %.1f kHz\n", bandInfo.Name, bandInfo.LowerFreq, bandInfo.UpperFreq)

Run the example program to see all available bands:

./bin/bandplan_example

LF/MF: 2190m, 630m, 160m HF: 80m, 60m, 40m, 30m, 20m, 17m, 15m, 12m, 10m VHF: 6m, 4m, 2m UHF: 70cm Microwave: 23cm, 13cm, 9cm, 6cm, 3cm
