[CTSARA] Fwd: [CT ARES Discussion] INFO: Hams Needed for JOTA 2014 (10/18/14)

[Jon Perelstein]

Doug WA1SFH is recruiting hams to participate in a Boy Scout "Jamboree On
The Air" thing on OCTOBER 18.

You don't have to go up to Union CT to participate (up in the northeast
corner of the state near Sturbridge MA).  He needs people to operate from
their home locations to conduct QSOs with the hams up there.

I don't know that we'll be talking about it for years, but it might be
interesting to see how it goes.

Jon
