Mike Please add Camp Trexler to the list the call is W3TSR I am the trustee of the station and would really like to part of this great group. Darryl W3TSR/...
Thank you, excellent work. In California, I do not think that Camp Mirimichi has been in operation as an independent camp for quite a while, probably a decade...
Mike, Nice start for the Web site. I have a question, though, about the rankings. Scout level: Earn at least 50 points. Tenderfoot level: Earn at least 100...
The award levels seem really tough, considering how rarely camps are on the air. Scoring 10 might be a real achievement here on the west coast. Are these...
Nice job on the website, Mike. We gave SCOTA top billing here on the home page at ScoutRadio with a link to your new site. On a similar note, we've got a dead...
Hi Jon, et al, It appears the Youth Skeds Database is dead. The entire DB emptied out prior to the cutover to the new web site. I have sent numerous...
Walter, The purpose of what you see on the website right now is to get the general ham population interested in talking to camps. The idea of this is also ...
Dan, Thanks...yes this is a oversight and will be corrected. Mike AB5EB ... Dan, Thanks...yes this is a oversight and will be corrected. Mike AB5EB On Sun, May...
I don't see how the general ham population would be interested in this. These awards are only achievable for professional certificate chasers. Even with more...
Wunder, I think the general ham population will have more interest then you think. Many of the hams got their exposure to radio through scouts. The purpose is ...
Wunder, Also, I do like your idea for a all call area award. We have discussed a WAS award also, however this will be a real challenge. Not all of the awards...
Hi Frank. Thanks for the insight. I'll pull the bad URL for now and if in the future we manage to find a replacement, we'll deal with it at that time. Thanks...
I respectfully disagree...this multi-level award system is achievable by a Scout. In fact it will be just as attainable as some of the other Scout awards ...
I think this is possible Are there enough camps for some of the higher levels? Keep in mind not all of them are on very often International scout camps,...
There are over 800 BSA owned camps. I think it is a great challenge and that is what makes it fun. There are going to be other awards that are easier to earn....
Hi All, What about Echolink QSO's? Hams and radio scouts outside the USA will have great difficulty working camp stations. As operator of many international ...
BTW re WAS, Delaware will have a new camp opening "soon". The camp name is unknown {to me} at this time. But, it is being built in Dover, DE as a Cub Scout...
Steve, When you get the info let me know. I am going to update the website soon with the awards we have talked about and WAS is one of them. Maybe a enough ...
The Rochester ARA Ham Radio Venturing Crew # 73, a combined youth development program of the Boy Scouts of America and the Rochester Amateur Radio Association,...
Hi all: Check out our Venturing Crew 80 in Alexandria Va (www.w3bsa.org <http://www.w3bsa.org/> .). We originally started as Explorer Post 80 in 1995 in the...
But no one starts with Eagle. Only 2% achieve that. Everyone does Scout (by definition) and probably 98% make Tenderfoot. So lets have the Tenderfoot level be...
Walter, Levels are fine with me.I just don't think that we need to remove high-end goals as well. BTW: These days, it seems that about 4% make Eagle. Don't...
As it happens I'll be up that way on Saturday doing a D-STAR demo. If I can find my uniform (and still get into it) I'll bring it along for a spot of...
There is no official option for anything other than a US Flag in that position. http://www.scouting.org/scoutsource/Media/InsigniaGuide/06A.aspx On the other...
If you belong to the BS of America, you wear the US flag. If you are a British Scout, you wear the UK flag. Don/AA2F From: Mark Phillips Sent: Friday, May...
Mark, If it is a British uniform, then the UK flag is appropriate. If it is an American uniform, then it should have a US flag. If you are representing the...
Hi Folks! Here is a suggestion to consider: Scouting Special Events or activities not held in a Scout Camp need to be considered in some fashion for...
If you can find and fit your British scout uniform, you can supplement it with the British flag; the US Scout uniform only has the US Flag whether or not you...
Gordon, We have talked about other awards. I think Girl Scout camps would be a obvious fit to this award. Other ideas have been OA lodges, scout meeting ...
