HEMA, the Humps Excluding Marilyns Award, is a programme similar to SOTA which involves chasing and activating summits. Recently there has been an increase in popularity.

The HEMA Activity Day is Saturday 16th June and most activity will take place between 10:00 UTC and 14:00 UTC.

For chasers there will be certificates for chasing three or more summits. For activators there are also certificates for a QSO with another HEMA summit operator. It’s not a contest, but rather a bit of fun to get people operating portable.
