   GOTA - Get On The Air.   
      
   I visited a Clubs Field Day site a year or two ago but didn't ask to   
   operate since I hadn't joined the club.   
      
   I don't know the proper name for it, but several radios being used had   
   a Panadaptor display built in the front panel.   
      
   I always wondered when that tuning accessory would be built-in to a   
   radio.   
      
   The first Panadaptor I saw used a CRT Tube, those new radios displayed   
   it on a LCD (I think that is the technology they used).
