Jamboree On The Air Saturday 16 & Sunday 17 October 2010

It is approaching the time of the year when Jamboree on the Air (JOTA) is taking place. If you have not heard of this event, read on. JOTA is an opportunity to talk to Beavers, Cubs, Scouts, Brownies and Guides from around the UK, Europe and even further afield if the conditions are right.

The Kingdom Amateur Radio Society (KARS) will be setting up radio stations at Fordell Firs. There will be an opportunity to use radio equipment, take part in a radio controlled treasure hunt, use the Morse code, learn something about radio, and possibly make a simple radio. For those interested in computers, there will be an opportunity to participate in Jamboree on the Internet (JOTI), communicating by computer to other like minded young people.
At the same time as having fun at this event, it will be possible to complete work towards the Communicators Activity Badge (for Cubs, Scouts and Explorers).
