JOTA / JOTI 2018
JOTA / JOTI 2018 runs from Friday 19 to Sunday 21 October 2018.
This is the 61st year this event is running and is the largest Scouting event on the calendar with approximately 1,5 million Cubs, Scouts and Guides taking part.
The Sandringham Scout Group, ZS6SSG will be among the 24 stations registered from South Africa to take part in this event.
They will be active on 40 and 80 m and will be running an additional 2 m station for the youngsters. There will also be SSTV transmissions made throughout the weekend to enable Cubs and Scouts to swap badges and photos of the event with other stations. This will prove to be a huge draw card for the youth.
Look out for the many JOTA stations running over the weekend and contact very eager youngsters, and some eager Hams manning the stations.
Let's show the youth what Amateur Radio is all about!
