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 (ADRF)
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 2:30 PM for those interested. We will have burgers & hot dogs, buns,
condiments, potato salad, drinks, chips & salsa. BBQ donations can be made on site. If you are
staying for BBQ you might want to bring a folding chair. For information contact:
