 This station has been taking part in J.O.T.A. for quite a few years mainly from Cherry Garth but also from other locations in 1990 the station ceased to take part until 1994 when we tried a station we had 2 scouts and 4 radio amateurs the following year we had 30 scouts and guides and 1 radio amateur then in 1996 we had 130 scouts and guides attend the weekend & a team of Ventures and Rangers who helped with all the badge requirements that the radio opps couldn't. From 1998 Leaders from the Cub Section have put on non radio forms of communication such as Finger spelling, Secret writing, Fax machine and emergency telephone procedures.

Some of the activities that take place during a typical weekend are `Hunt the lost leader' radio direction finding, `Morse code' using Morse keys and buzzers,

Imitation RTTY station 2 x 386 laptops linked together using HamCom software, 4 laptop PC's using Digipan to simulate live PSK31 contacts. ( these have now died ) 
`Slow Scan TV' receiving pictures off the radio, and all the normal badge work associated with the scouts and guides communicators badges.
as well as the Cub communicators badge
