The “Fox” was hiding in the woods across the road from our Clubhouse.
As part of our monthly Tech Saturday Forum, Jim Wright N2GXJ, will be presenting a fox hunt : Fox Hunt XI - Autumnal Fox Hunt
Participants should meet at the Clubhouse Field Site @ 0900 Hours. Using your 2 meter hand held radio, or other device of your choosing, you will try and find a hidden transmitter by homing in on the strength of its periodic transmissions. Part navigating, part radio treasure hunting, part teamwork, and just plain fun, this is a family friendly radio club event that all members and their families are encouraged to team up and try and to participate in together. If you’ve never done one before, and even if you have, come on out to try this one – it should be lots of fun! If you want to set up a channel on your radio in advance, the hidden transmitter will operate on the generally recognized fox hunt simplex frequency of 146.565 MHz (FM). When you get close, you can probably also hear it on 439.695 MHz (the third harmonic) as well. |
