Jamboree On The Air 2000

Since the last six years I have been the guest of scouting group "St Christoffel" in Rosmalen during the annual Jamboree On The Air. JOTA at St Christoffel is always good for lots of good food and drink and lots of laughs.
This page will give you an impression of the JOTA 2000.
If you would like to know more about scouting St Christoffel, you can visit their Website.

Antenna The HF beam on the wood-and-rope tower that the scouts build.
Same tower with the VHF beam on the background. This mast also supported the 80 meters dipole. Antenna
shack The guys decided that the shack needed some more atmosphere, so they turned it into a livingroom. See the couch and the lamps ? Fantastic !!


To add even more to the atmosphere, they brought in more stuff. Here is the antique stove.... Nice and warm..


Don't worry be happy ! Guess why I'm looking so happy....
