[PaQSO] Radio Merit Badge on the air

[John Myers]

Hi everyone,

I received the following from Jeff, KE8BKP. I promised to help get the word
out.

September 10th I am doing a Radio Merritt badge program for 40-75 scouts.
Dale Lamb from Canton is doing class. We are supporting him with the radio
time. Each scout needs 10 minutes of QSO time for badge. We will set up at
least one NPOTA station on TR04 North Country trail. We will also try to
work some of the Ohio state parks on the air that day since it is also
September 10. It is at camp Tuscazoar near Zoar Ohio. Anyone interested in
helping out is welcome. Everyone gets a free lunch and tickets to the pig
roast at night. We will operate 9-4 approx, Anyone interested let me know.
Especially on the NPOTA side we can fit a couple stations on the high
grassy spot and set up G5RV's in the trees. We will also try to demo
different mode and some repeater and 2M fun. Did I mention the Pig Roast?

73,

John, KD8MQ
