TACG, Whitman ARC To Operate Camp Norse JOTA 2011, Oct. 15

JOTA 2011 logo

Don Burke KB1LXH writes on Facebook:

We are just 16 days from the 54th Jamboree on the Air. This year’s event will take place on October 15th.

I will be putting together a group of hams from the Taunton Area Communications Group and our friends from the Whitman ARC.

We will operate from Camp Norse in Kingston, MA from 8am to 4pm Saturday using the call sign KC1TAC. We will again be using local 2M repeaters and Scout HF frequencies.

Last year the 53rd JOTA Group put 248 Cub Scout, Boy Scout and Girls Scouts on air and we hope to continue with that success. These young Scouts will be the life blood of our hobby in the coming years and I need your help to make it as exciting as we can for them.

What do we need this year? Operators at camp, the use of local repeaters, and of course contacts!

First, if you have helped out in the past or would like to help out this year, please contact me and I will add your name to the 54th JOTA Group list.

I will give you all the information needed to for a day.

Second, are you a trustee of a local repeater? Or do you know someone who is? Please ask them if we may list their repeater as a place to make contacts during the JOTA events on Saturday October 15th. Whitman ARC has already said yes. I will complete a list and pass it along as the date nears. We have had a great response from our friends in the past and because of you we have been able to get every Scout on the air. Some 800 Boys and Girls in just 4 years!

Also if your repeater has Echolink or IRLP, on the day of JOTA will you add “JOTA” to your Stations name description?

3rd, Are you be hosting a JOTA event with your Radio Club, Scout Pack/Den or Troop/Crew? I’d like to add your groups to our list of Scout contacts.

Maybe you don’t have a Scout connection and want to help from your QTH? We still want to hear from you! Please mark your calendar for the October 15th

Feel Free to pass this request on to your club members and Ham Radio friends. The bigger the list the better the time!

With your help and some good weather we will have another Great JOTA event in Eastern Massachusetts. Thank you for your assistance, we’ll look for you on the air.

Ham Volunteers Needed For Jimmy Fund Walk, Sept. 18

Steve Schwarm, W3EVE writes:

The Jimmy Fund Walk is Sunday, September 18, 2011. Hams are needed for the Buses and First Aid Stations. Times run from 5 AM to 7 PM. There are some half day assignments for the Morning. Everything is normally done by 7PM. This event is on the Boston Marathon Course but most of the activity is on the last half.

This a great event for a new ham who wants to try out public serve. Every thing will be on 2 Meters. A good antenna for an HT with extra batteries is what is needed for the First Aid Stations. A mobile antenna is needed for the buses. Drop me an email at w3eve at arrl dot net if you can help. Please put Jimmy Fund in the subject. Give me a call or send an email if you have questions.

Boston College Summer Campers Learn About Amateur Radio

Youngsters attending Boston College’s St. Columbkille Summer Camp were treated to an Amateur Radio presentation by Eastern MA ARRL leaders on July 12, 2011.

Approximately two-dozen 10-year-olds from the greater Boston area witnessed  operational HF and VHF/UHF stations, complete with a vertical antenna mounted on a stepladder, and Morse code telegraph keys made from paper clips, a doorknob, and a block of wood. The campers were given the opportunity to use code practice oscillators, then they completed a fun quiz in the Morse code and the international spelling alphabets. The session culminated in each boy and girl speaking via UHF repeater to youths at the nearby Dexter Academy in Brookline.

Tarr brought along the original Senate-House Resolution proclaiming Amateur Radio Week in Massachusetts. His office was instrumental in helping the Eastern MA ARRL field organization to secure both the legislative resolution as well as a gubernatorial proclamation.

Sen. Tarr described the steps involved in creating the resolution and its impact–particularly, how it underscores the work of amateur radio operators in the Commonwealth. He praised CAARA and its members for their dedication to public service, as well as acknowledging the club’s ARRL Special Service Club status.
