Mobile Radio Fox Hunt hosted by Rick (W1JRM) & Jayne McNutt - SMCARA

Try and find the location of the signal transmitting from the Fox Den!!!

SMCARA is also having our monthly Ham Breakfast on Nov 2, at Cracker Barrel from 8am - 9am, at 45315 Abell House Lane, California, MD 20619

You could meet your friends (or Fox Team members) for breakfast, or your team could meet in a parking lot close by, or your team could choose a secret location to hang out and start the hunt. Check-ins will be accepted between 9:00 am - 9:25 am: text the Fox 865-659-0277 your Callsign and name and Fox will return a text.

Fox will transmit every 15 minutes for 2 minutes (first minute will include a hint to help narrow your search and the second minute will be a tone) starting at 9:30 am, then 9:45 am, etc. Hints will become more helpful as the clock gets closer to 1:30 pm. The Fox will transmit Simplex on 147.555 MHz frequency from a location in St. Mary’s County. If you can’t hear the first transmission, please text Fox for help.

A  lunch will be provided, and we can eat, and share our successes and lessons learned with one another as we arrive to the Fox Den! Lunch: Sante Fe Soup, Fritos, maybe some fruit and / or veggies, something sweet, and also includes drinks - water, tea & lemonade.

If you plan to attend, please send an email to Fox at K3HKIradio at gmail.com: by Oct. 26, 2019, so the Fox has time to shop and make lunch. Also, let the Fox know your Callsign if you have one, and name, the total number in your team, and if you have any dietary preferences.

Hope you can join us for a Mobile Radio Fox Hunt. Please visit SMCARA website calendar for details.
