The Fisher's Ghost Amateur Radio Club will be running the amateur radio activity for the 2016 Australian Scout Jamboree at Cataract Scout Park from 3 January - 13 January. They will be active on most bands from 80m to 70cm using the callsign VI2AJ2016. Hours of operation will be between 2300 - 0600 UTC, each day.

More than 12,000 scouts are expected at this Jamboree so it's promising to be a huge 11 days. There will be many kids hoping to get you in the log, so keep an ear out for VI2AJ2016 and if you hear them, give them a call.

QSL via LoTW, Bureau, OQRS via Clublog and Direct via VK2KDP. See the VI2AJ2016 QRZ page for full details.

Hi Mike, yes, standard Scout calling frequencies. As Grant mentioned, they're listed on the QRZ page. Hope to get you in the log.
