CQ Magazine World Wide Fox Hunting Weekend
Starting times will be 10:30 AM to 1:30 PM at 5 minute intervals. If you start at 1:30 you will have
until 3:00 to complete the course. NO REGISTRATION FEES! There will be 5 hidden T’s using
the MOE-MOI-MOS-MOH-MO5 format. You will be issued a “Punch card” and there will be orange
& white flagging tape at each punch located close to the T’s which will be concealed. Antennas
will all be vertically polarized with approximately the same radiated power from each “T”. For
information on “International Style Transmitter Hunting” you may go to Joe Moell, k0ov’s
excellent website.... www.homingin.com. We will have limited equipment to loan for those that
do not have small 2-M beams. Bring a connector to go from your HT antenna connector to a
BNC cable (Chinese HT’s not recommended). There will be experienced Hams present to
demonstrate techniques for those that want to learn about “On-Foot” Amateur Radio Direction
Finding (ARDF) and some “Practice T’s” to experiment with before you start the course. You do
not need a Ham Radio License to participate! You will be issued a map of the area with major
features delineated. A compass, clipboard and pencil may be handy to plot bearings with.
Dress appropriately and plan on taking water with you while hunting.
A BBQ is planned for about 2:00 PM for those who would like to stick around to socialize and
“Talk Radio”. We will have burgers & hot dogs, buns, condiments, potato salad, drinks (water &
sodas), chips & salsa. BBQ donations can be made on site. Bring a folding chair even If you are
not staying for BBQ as seating is limited.
