Welcome

Welcome to the website of the Scout Radio and Electronics Service Unit (SRESU).
The SRESU is a service unit of the Scouts Australia, Victorian Branch. Established to provide radio and electronics related services for Scouts, the SRESU provides health and welfare communications for large Scouting activities, helps Scouts obtain amateur radio licences by running theory classes and examinations and is responsible for co-ordination of the annual event Jamboree On The Air (JOTA) and Jamboree On The Internet (JOTI) in Victoria.

The SRESU has 2 portable amateur radio repeaters, VK3RSR and VK3RSS which are used for these activities.

Membership of the SRESU is open to all members of Scouts Australia, Victorian Branch who have an interest in radio or electronic activities. An amateur radio licence is NOT a prerequisite for membership.

The SRESU meets on the second Monday of each month (except January) in Box Hill and visitors are always welcome. For more information please email the Secretary via our Contact Us page.
