Small transmitters are hidden in the woods and the competitors search for them using a radio receiver, map and compass. This activity is popular with Scouts because it appeals to their competitive instincts and with Scout Leaders because it involves map and compass work, as well as burning up a lot of energy.<\/p>\n<h4>Pioneering Projects <a href=\"http:\/\/radio-scouting.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/flagpole-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-145\" src=\"http:\/\/radio-scouting.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/flagpole-2-263x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"171\" srcset=\"https:\/\/radio-scouting.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/flagpole-2-263x300.jpg 263w, https:\/\/radio-scouting.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/flagpole-2.jpg 350w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a><\/h4>\n<p>While most radio amateurs prefer an aerial mast that is quick to assemble, Scouts might enjoy erecting a mast using their skills tying knots and making lashings.<\/p>\n<h4>Summary of Activities<\/h4>\n<p>Here is a summary of activities that might be offered at an amateur radio station for the Scouts.
