Another weekly foxhunt!
> The South Shore FoxHunters are conducting
> their weekly foxhunt on Saturday July 10, 2003
> at 1000 hours EST. The South Shore FoxHunters
> is sponsored by the Massasoit Area Radio Association
> and the Whitman Amateur Radio Club. We welcome
> new participants and all area hams are welcome
> to join.
>
> The hunt consists of locating the fox, whom
> transmits on 146.565 MHz within the boundaries.
> The Fox must hide between Route 138, Route 3, and
> Route 44. Fox Hunters use the Bridgewater
> repeater (147.180 MHz PL 67) for coordination and
> relay of beam headings.
>
> Fox Hunting can be conducted using body fading
> with a handheld. Directional antennas cut for 146
> MHz would be a valuable asset.
>
> Check out www.homingin.com for ARDF information.
> You can build a simple 2 meter tape beam in record
> time to hunt for the fox this weekend in about one
> hour or less.
