I would like to see if I could get another radio opr to assist with NCS operations at the 2018 Francis Scott Key District Boy Scouts Camporee. This is a three day event (see attached doc) but I will only need help on Saturday, 10/20 from about 0900-1600ish. I will have my camper there so we will, if needed, be protected from the weather. I will have to monitor four channels of operations during the events. Three are MURS and one Amateur. They will have at least 30 or so scouts/groups with radios so there will be a bit of traffic. 

Basic schedule is training Friday eve, Sat AM, then a full blown S&R exercise in the afternoon to include a helicopter coming in, about 40 'victims' with full moulage and perhaps even transporting some victims. This will be a fun day with lots of stuff going on. Fall should be nice and cool. 

 

If interested I can send full up to date details. You would only need to bring your HT and if you have one, a MURS capable radio.

 

Thanks
