Join Scouts and amateur radio operators from around the world for Jamboree on the Air (JOTA) — the largest Scouting event on the planet! Using amateur radio, Scouts of all ages can connect with other Scouts and operators across town, across the country, and even across continents.

Participants will have the chance to:

Make real radio contacts with Scouts and operators worldwide
Learn how amateur radio works and how to get licensed
Explore radios, antennas, and digital modes of communication
Take part in fun on-air activities and earn participation recognition
No prior radio experience is needed — licensed operators will guide you through the process. This is a great opportunity to explore technology, communication, and global Scouting fellowship in a hands-on way.

Bring your curiosity and join us for an afternoon of radio adventure!
