Please try to avoid tying these up.
If you hear someone calling CQ JOTA, consider taking some time to talk 
to Scouts.
Most of these young people are somewhat shy on the air, so ask them 
questions such
as:
Name, Scout Rank, Favorite Scouting Activity, their Hobbies, etc.
No need for a long QSO- they probably have many Scouts waiting to make
a contact.

I will be operating a station in a local park for a troop on Saturday, 
and then
putting MCHE on the air Sunday.
Leaves? What leaves?
