If it helps, several of us will be setting up a JOTA event at the Boy Scouts 
Headquarters this Saturday at 10am until 2pm or so.  

We dd this last year as well with GREAT results.

  

Off of 610 North at TC Jester.

  

We’ll have a couple HF stations as well as a satellite station active too.

  

We will also be launching a balloon with a WSPR tracker on it, like we did for 
the BVARC field day back in June. With scouts around the planet tracking it.

In competition with a JOTA group in Austin.

  

Come on over and join us.

Howdy,

  

My name is Eric Lieb I am the Cubmaster for Pack 806 in Houston. I have several 
scout families that expressed interest in participating in the global Jamboree 
On The Air event this weekend.  I am hoping to find a club or organization that 
already has plans to participate that I can send our scout families too, 
ideally on Sunday October 22nd.

  

Please let me know if BVARC or another radio group in Houston has organized 
plans.

  

Thank you,

  

Eric Lieb

Cubmaster

P.S. Depending on your memory some might remember me.  I was a member of the 
club a long time ago when I first earned my Technican license (KF5GWY).  I made 
my first contact with a club member on  the BVARC repeater when i got my shiny 
new kenwood th f6a radio. I don't do much ham work these days ( too many other 
hobbies, family, and life competing for my time). I also no longer live within 
the range of the BVARC repeater. I enjoyed my time with BVARC and may one day 
join the club again. 73.
