Oct. 15th Scouting Jamboree On The Air… J.O.T.A. Modern technology offers Scouts the exciting opportunity to make friends in other countries without leaving home. JOTA is an annual event in which Boy and Girl Scouts and Guides from all over the world speak to each other by means of Amateur (ham) Radio.
The layout has some challenges for our antenni. Can you spare some time to help out?? Hope to have about 6 or 8 of us plus a couple or three stations (Hint- bring radios) The American Legion, 1708 N Irwin Ave. will be our location this year. If you have some time, stop by and give a hand or information.. 9am to ~1Pm
In 2014, over 1.3 million Scouts, Guides/Girl Scouts participated in JOTA..
While I am thinking about it,….
As we all know, there was wide spread devastation in Florida. A lot of people we all know were down there when this went on.. There is one of our members that was able to use his emergency training during this.
John Kotlarik, NA9J was in contact with Wes, W9WES, and said that he was in a shelter with about 400 evacuees and was busy with his radio .. I think making welfare messages … got to let the folks know that they are safe and where they are.. Thank you John for exemplifying the work of Ham Operators.
Are we ready, trained for this??
Thinking ahead..
