Fox Hunt Rules

02/05/2011 • General

FoxThere will be a DF Hunt this Thursday using Landranger Map 173. The Fox’s location area will be somewhere East of SU10, North of SU79 and on will be transmitting on 145.275 MHz Competitors may start from any location.

First transmission 19.00 - Transmissions will be 10 minutes long followed 5 minute break up to 20.55. Competitors move off on hunt at 19.30

We will ultimately meet up at a pub after the event and everyone is welcome - members or not. You can even come to the pub if you aren’t chasing!

The area in which we are chasing is deliberately narrowed to keep down fuel costs.

A simple project you could build is a TDOA (Time Difference of Arrival) - http://www.ka7oei.com/PIC_tdoa.html
