[FoxHunt] Civil Air Patrol Foxhunt

Wed, 20 Mar 2002 22:33:27 -0500

We (Coast Guard Auxiliary and Civil Air Patrol) have held joint search 
and rescue type of exercises in NC for the past two years.  They have 
been held at the Jordan and Harris Lakes area near Raleigh.  There is 
one planned for this year that will probably take place at Kerr Lake 
near the VA border.  An ELT on 121.575 is usually used and is in the 
plans for this SAR exercise.  The tentative date as it stands now is 17 
August.  That is about all of the details that I know at this point in 
time.  More later.  Tune in at 6 and 11.........
