JOTA-JOTI<\/strong><\/span>

The Loyalist Amateur Radio Club has always supported the Cubs and Scouts in this great event.\u00a0 It was attended by a good number of amateurs this year (2018) and it was very interesting to see them take part, and talk to the fellow cubs and scouts.\u00a0 The contacts were mostly in the States due to the propagation at the time.\u00a0 We had some 2 meter contacts, from around New Brunswick on the linking system, we had two HF Radios, one on 40m and one on 20m.\u00a0 We all had a lot of fun, and can’t wait to do it again.
The Jamboree on the Air, or JOTA, is an annual Scouting event that uses Amateur Radio to link Scouts around the world, around Canada, and in your own community. Held on the third full weekend of October each year, this worldwide jamboree requires no travel, other than to a nearby Amateur radio shack, Scout meeting place, camp or community center.
JOTA started in 1958 (with the World JOTA Bureau located right here in Ottawa, Canada). In 1997, communicating through the Internet was added, and this was called Jamboree on the Internet, or JOTI for short. Both annual events are sanctioned and sponsored by the World Organization of the Scouting Movement.
In short, it\u2019s the best way to talk to half a million Scouts and Guides without having to leave your own community!
