I am Malcolm, GM3TAL, a member of the Kingdom Amateur Radio Society which is based at the Scout Adventures campsite, Fordell Firs in IO86 square. Our club will be on HF bands and Internet modes during the Jamboree. We also plan to be on the air "after hours". We should have a special call for the event which I shall post here when we have received confirmation from our licencing authority. All our radio club members are part of the local Scout Active Support Team and several of us have other leadership roles in Scouting. We are all looking forward to making contact with the NA1WJ station and facilitating greetings messages between our young people.

The KARS group at the Fordell Firs Scottish Scout HQ campsite will be using special call GB0FFS for the duration of the WSJ. We plan to operate from GM during the "opening hours" at WSJ and, hopefully, after hours as well, probably on 7 MHz. We plan to use? IC7300 + ACOM 1000 to 3 ele yagi for 20.15, 10 metres and a phased pair of delta loops for 40 metres beaming at West Virginia. We should also manage 80 m at night usinhg a dipole.
Our shack is being refurbished and we now have an access ramp, kitchen and bathroom. So should provide some comfort for visitors and operators. All we need is good conditions for HF propagation!!
Leave a message on this blog if you'd like to try for a QSO - as well as WSJ we hope to be in a position to work other Scout? stations in Canada, USA and Mexico. It would be good to hear from you!
And, of course, from Scout stations anywhere else in the world - we cannot guarantee QSOs but we shall try!!

We plan to activate GB0FFS from Fordell Firs later this evening. We shall be on 14MHz, checking 14.290 and keeping an eye on the cluster from 2100 hrs UT onward.
I shall not have access to this groups.io blog from the operating position but will be able to access to check for any spots.
