In this photo print, we are transported back to the year 1986, where Huddersfield scouts eagerly tune in for a worldwide jamboree on the radio. The image showcases Mr Tony Barr of Denby Dale Amateur Radio Club diligently setting up special equipment at Crosland Moor scout groups Moorside Avenue HQ. Scouts from various corners of the globe enthusiastically participated in the annual Scout Jamboree On The Air, allowing these young adventurers to connect with fellow scouts as far away as Australia. Utilizing closed-circuit television technology, they even had the opportunity to transmit pictures to other groups equipped with similar facilities. The Scouts from Newsome and Longwood were among those who actively took part in this exhilarating event. Every contact made during this extraordinary experience was meticulously logged on a map, capturing their global connections and fostering a sense of unity among these boys. It is worth noting that some of these enthusiastic youngsters were studying for their communicators badge, further highlighting their dedication towards honing their communication skills through this unique platform. This remarkable snapshot encapsulates not only the spirit of adventure but also highlights how technology played an integral role in bringing together young minds from different parts of the world during that era.
