Jamboree on the Air 15 to 17 October 2021

15/10/2021 • General

The world’s largest radio Scout event promoting friendship and global citizenship (JOTA) is this weekend.  Get on the air and listen out for Scout radio stations.  You could ignite a lifelong interest in radio if you work a young Scout live on air.

I am running a JOTA station at 2nd Marlborough Scout hut on Saturday.  I am planning to be QRV on 40M in the afternoon using the callsign GB2MAR and we will probably also have 2M running.

It is also Operation Blue Ham this weekend on 60M. If you have this band have a listen around and work a few ATC stations as well.
