Amateur Radio at the Statesboro Boy Scouts Jamborama

A group of Amateur Radio Operators organized by Philip Neidlinger, KA4KOE set up some Amateur Radio stations at the 100th Anniversary Boy Scouts Jamborama at the Kiwanis Fairground in Statesboro, GA on Saturday, May 1. We demonstrated Amateur Radio to Boy Scouts and Cub Scouts and helped them earn them toward earning their Boy Scout radio badges and Cub Scout pins and belt loops. Several stations were set up, including the Georgia Baptist Disaster Relief Communications Trailer 5-C. Several different types of antennas were used including a military vertical mounted on Philip's truck, a screwdriver type HF mobile antenna on Russ Trio, KA4ZPV's van, and two dipole antennas hung from the Fairground's lamp posts.
