[ILHam] Volunteers Needed for K2BSA SES August 8-10

[Brian S. McDaniel]

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

The Boy Scouts of America have given the Rainbow Council Amateur Radio
Committee permission to operate K2BSA as a Special Event Station during
Scout AirFest on August 8, 9, and 10.

With nearly 3,750 registered Scouters, AirFest is one of the largest
Scout events in Northern Illinois this year.  We need volunteers to work
4 hour shifts on one of our four HF voice, CW, and PSK radio stations at
Lewis University Airport in Romeoville.

Our primary objective is introducing young men to radio communications,
electronics, and related professional fields.  The K2BSA operation is a
great way to do this.  Hams also have a unique opportunity to operate on
of America's most recognized amateur radio call signs.

Would you volunteer as a control operator and be an ambassador of the hobby?

Please visit the following link and register as a volunteer today.
