New Telegram Bot @sotachaser_bot Delivers Real-Time SOTA Spots to Chasers

A new tool has recently been introduced to the amateur radio community that will be of particular interest to SOTA chasers: the Telegram bot @sotachaser_bot. Developed by Iñigo, EA2CQ, this bot is designed to provide real-time SOTA spot notifications directly through the Telegram messaging platform.

The bot offers a clean, user-friendly interface that relies on familiar “slash” commands to configure alerts. Chasers can subscribe to specific callsigns or prefixes, allowing them to receive instant notifications as soon as relevant activator spots are posted. This makes it much easier to track activity and react quickly—an essential advantage for active chasers.

While many tools exist for monitoring SOTA activity, @sotachaser_bot stands out for its simplicity, speed, and integration with a platform many operators already use daily. It’s a lightweight solution that fits perfectly into a mobile setup or as part of a larger spotting workflow.

Feedback is welcome, and the developer is actively maintaining the bot with potential for further enhancements. Interested users can activate the bot by visiting @sotachaser_bot on Telegram.
