  Brazil - BRAZZIL - Jota Velloso spreading music from Bahia - Brazilian Music - March 2001
Jota indicated that he wants to reveal the music of Bahia, especially forms that are less well known to the outside world.
I told Jota I was beginning to suspect that their compassion for the less fortunate in Brazil had something to do with the character of their work.
Jota and Mariene later accompanied the children on an eight city tour in Italy and are continuing their work with the children and the church, all of whom are orphans.

 Jamboree On The Air - JOTA   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
Since 1958 JOTA is an annual event in which about 560,000 Scouts and Guides all over the world make contact with each other by means of amateur radio.
JOTA brings together members of the Scout Movement, and also for members of the Girl Guides.
JOTA is very important as it provides an insight into an aspect of everyday life that is normally taken for granted, e.g.

 jota
The HC Jota has treble edginess under control, but not smothered—there is enough edge up there to be reassuring without it turning into something aggressive and irritating.
Power-wise, the HC Jota resides in the mid-ground between the single-digit wattage SETs and push-pull tube amps, but where the similarly powered ATM-211 leaned towards push-pull, the HC Jota's voicing makes it kindred with the low-powered amps.
Of course, it is not likely you would find the HC Jota paired with the E-M in the real world—someone who could afford a $75,000 speaker would not have it harnessed to a $9600 amp.

 SoundStage! Equipment Review - Art Audio Jota Amplifier (9/1999)
If the Jota could drive average speakers to satisfying output levels in such a space without the assistance of additional preamp gain (usually about 18dB), whatever preconceptions you might have about real-world power requirements can be safely set aside, forgotten and buried.
Listening to the Jota had that kind of kinesthetic effect, as though the music was supremely sharp, in focus, crystal clear, playing fast ball with my psyche, all cobwebs removed.
Yet the Jota appeals equally to my occasional fascination with counting the violins, sensing a reed’s rating, absorbing a complex fugue’s voices all at once, visiting the subterranean air conditioning units the recording engineers didn’t think audible, or indulging in dance-hall music at levels that are ultimately not good for you.

 SoundStage! Equipment Review - Art Audio Jota Amplifier - Review Follow-Up (3/2000)
While the 32B Jota handled this challenge without obvious signs of distress, a reduction of width and depth in the soundstage and a loose and somewhat boomy bass made it transparent that the amp was at the very edge of its power band.
This Jota excelled in all the areas one would expect -- soundstaging, immediacy, palpability, dynamics and speed -- while being bettered in bass slam and extension by the transistor amp.
What the advent of the 52BX tube and its employment in the Jota has done is move the fence post outward by a considerable margin.

 StreetSwing's Dance History Archives - Spanish Jota Dance Page - Main1
The Jota came to be in the 1700s and is the National folk dance of Aragón, Spain.
The "Jota of Aragón" is the oldest of the styles and corresponds with the ancient carols, which in Chaucer's time meant a dance as well as a song.
Funerals and wakes also afford opportunities for the dance, the Jota, for instance, is often performed in watching the dead.

 SPANISH TRADITIONAL MUSIC
Some say the Jota is of Moorish origin, some date the origin of the Jota back to the music styles and musical structures of the Iberians and Celtiberians.
The Jota plays a role in the traditional music of the region and the Extremaduran Jota is played often with accordion, flute, castanets, guitars, tambourines and triangle.
The Balearic Jota is characterized by a relatively slow tempo and the use of rasping instruments, such as rattles.

 VK2MB and Jamboree on the Air
The Manly-Warringah Radio Society takes down a lot of their equipment to the JOTA site, which is usually Narrabeen "Lakeside Caravan Park".
We setup our HF & 2m equipment in the different tents & this year we even had three HF stations on the air at once using a 3element beam at 30ft, an ED-52C (single trap for 80-40-20-15-10m) dipole & a G5RV dipole strung from the flying fox scaffolding.
These are the official suggested JOTA frequencies which, of course, are only a guide (the 80mSSB are useless to VKs).

 Diecast Car Lamborghini Jota SVR   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
The white "Jota" logos on the wing are not visible in the photograph of the real car that I have seen, but they may have been present at some stage in the cars life.
The "Jota" badges on the rear spoiler are misleading in that this particular car is not the Lamborghini Jota of 1970, but instead was another unique Miura conversion made for the German Lamborghini importer Herbert Hahne by Lamborghini in 1975-76.
The Jota was never raced, and was sold in 1971 during a financial crisis at Lamborghini (which occurred often in the 1970s for the troubled Italian supercar company).
