JOTA2004


		Jamboree On The Air 2004 took place over the weekend of October 16th and 17th. 2nd Bracknell Scouts Group were involved with two amateur radio stations: GB4SBS (Second Bracknell Scouts) was operational over the whole weekend from the Scout Hut in Freeborn Way, Bracknell. The station included HF (also known as “short wave”, capable of world-wide communications) and VHF (capable of up to 100km range). GB4SEB (South East Berkshire) was operational on the Saturday Afternoon only, from Earleywood Camp Site near Ascot, to coincide with the South East Berkshire Cubs’ “Communicator Badge” event. The station was VHF-only, and gave cubs from various groups in South East Berkshire the opportunity to talk with Beavers, Cubs and Scouts from other regions.
