GB2GP, Gilwell Park on the air this weekend

One of the most iconic UK amateur radio special event callsigns, GB2GP, Gilwell Park, the headquarters of the Scout Association, will be heard on air during the weekend of 19 and 20 of June.

A team of 9 UK Radio Scouters from all over the south of England will be running not only the station, but also lots of different radio activities. These include Radio Orienteering for the Beaver and Cub Fundays at Gilwell Park over the weekend. Over 5,000 Beavers and Cubs aged 5 - 10½ from all over the UK are expected at the event.

They hope to be running on all the usual HF and VHF frequencies as well as EchoLink. They should be found at or around the Scout frequencies, the most common of which are 3.690MHz, 7.090MHz and 14.290MHz.
