What is a chaser or hunter?
A chaser or hunter contacts an activator station on the air.
You do not need to be at the reference yourself. You may work the activator from home, portable or while travelling.
Awards for chasers
Chasers and hunters can also work towards awards.
This is independent of whether the activator uploads a log or not.
Your own log counts
The important point is that you log your own QSO in GMA.
If you contacted the activator and enter the QSO correctly, it can count for your chaser or hunter awards.
GMAwatch
GMA provides a spotting system called GMAwatch.
It can be used to watch and find current activations.
One-click logging
Spotted activations can be logged very easily via GMAwatch.
The one-click function can copy many details automatically, making logging much easier for chasers.
Tip
If you regularly work activators, GMAwatch is very useful. It helps you find current activations faster and log your QSOs more easily.
