JOTA is a world wide scouting event intended to get Scouts on the air! We are expecting several Chicago area scouting units in the morning. We will be operating HF phone stations on 20 & 40 meters. There will be a roving HF digital station. The group will be monitoring the BARS UHF repeater on 443.525 +5 PL tone 114.8. Scheduled QSOs on 2 meters will also take place. The K9RSR Radio Scouting Committee is composed of members from several Chicago area ham clubs. It includes registered and trained scouters from Rainbow and Three Fires Council. On air operations will begin at 9 AM and run until done or dusk. For information check out the BARS net tonight at 8 PM, catch KC9ZVD on the DARC 2 meter repeater during the Lunch Bunch net, or email KC9ZVD at Yahoo.com.
