This Thursday May 7 and again on Monday May 18, amateur radio volunteers in Illinois are introducing ham radio to Scout troops ages 11-17 and their leaders & parents. We will host multiple stations and be on-the-air for 1 hour (details below). Would you please share this information with others and perhaps set an alarm to listen and try to give these Scouts a QSO and a smile? Together, we can make some great memories and perhaps spark further interest in our hobby!
