For several years the Melbourne, FL hamfest featured a transmitter
hunt at the close of activities on Saturday.. this is a two day
event. The hunts were dropped perhaps 6 or 7 years ago. The hunts
will be resumed this year. This is a two day event (S. S. but
Saturday will be the most active day.
The transmitter hunt will start at the hamfest site at 4:00
PM. Expect more than one transmitter and at least two hours of hunt
time. Final details are pending.
The club has posted "at least: $100 in prize money and hopes to have
some goodies such as antennas and active attenuators as prizes and
perhaps a trophy. There is some discussion as to how to divide this
money/goodies so that more hunters will receive something.
Expect more than one transmitter to hunt. This levels the playing
field so that getting caught on one red light does not kill your
chance of winning.
Details have not been posted on their web site but likely will be
there soon. They have forwarded details to me and anyone interested
may contact me directly and receive the latest information, or look
at their web site, www://pcars.org as I expect the site to be up dated soon.
Sincerely,
John Munsey, KB3GK
