Interesting coincidence after our discussion on fox hunting yesterday.  The FCC is hiring at their Columbia location for a "professional fox hunter"   Info below from the ARRL Newsletter that I received today.

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has started accepting applications for a Telecommunications Specialist at its High Frequency Direction Finding Center (HFDFC) in Columbia, Maryland. HFDFC supports the FCC Over-the-Air spectrum observation capabilities https://www.fcc.gov/over-air-spectrum-observation-capabilities , and provides direct support to the public safety community and other federal partners by locating interference sources on HF radio spectrum (below 30 MHz).
