Road Trip POTA to Lake Bodcau WMA

Road Trip POTA to Lake Bodcau WMA

March 4, 2023

On Saturday March 4th some HAMS are meeting at Cracker
Barrel in Longview at 7 AM. At 8:15 we will carpool to Lake
Bodcau Wildlife Management Area North of Shreveport, LA. We
will set up POTA stations near the campgrounds. Bodcau
(K-4051) is a rare park and should be fun to activate. An HF
station will be setup for anyone who wants to operate. There
are restrooms nearby, trees for antenna wires and large metal
grills for magmounts. Be advised there are hamfests and a
contest on this weekend also.
You will need to purchase a $4 permit ahead of time for the
WMA. UPDATE: The purchase price has increased. $5 permit fee plus a $5 "convenience" fee. You can purchase one at this link -

Hope to see you all there!
