[GCARC] find the radio fox! Saturday 1pm! more details in the morning

[Jim Wright]

The "fox" is revealed!
We'll check in with you on our 2 meter repeater, so that we'll know who all
is hunting, in case anyone gets lost and has to be talked in after an hour.
After check-ins, we can then switch over to try and talk with you, and then
home in on your simplex transmissions that you will be making on 146.565
Mhz (FM) into your hand held transmitter. The "fox" will be parked in a
public place. As we get closer, the receive signal should get stronger.
Kind of a "warmer/colder" game of hunt and seek!
Ok everyone, get out your maps, your radios, and hop in your cars!
Grab a family member to do the driving if you want, while we play radio.
Let's go have some radiosport fun!
