[ARDF] MMRA foxhunt be Saturday morning January 9th 2010

[Mike Giovannucci]

Hi all,

 

Here are the results on Saturday's fox hunt.  The fox, N1OMJ & Hunter
Co-Pilot N1TBN tried to trick AA1VS & WA1PIO by telling them that we were
waiting for the fox to transmit again so we could get a reading but they did
not buy it.

 

11:33 am - AA1VS & WA1PIO

11:37 am - KR1G & KB1SXO

12:36 pm - N1BE

12:53 pm - WB1W & AB2NJ

 

The fox hid at the following location

This is to confirm the hunt is on for Saturday, January 9th pending MMRA
approval for the use of the repeater.

Will be on the Weston 146.79 repeater input (146.19 MHz)..

The boundary will be a 10 mile radius from the Weston Repeater Site.
The fox transmissions will be clear through the repeater (on the 146.79
repeater output, though the fox will be transmitting on 146.19 MHz).
Fox transmissions will be 30 seconds long each, and will occur every five
minutes (10:00am, 10:05am, 10:10am, etc.).

The hunt will last until 12, unless found by all hunters. Will continue
after 12 if needed and hunters are still out looking.
Anyone who wants hints after 12:00 noon should ask for them (on the
repeater).
As in previous hunts and if there is an interest we will all go get lunch
together.

Note: after the first transmission will ask for a roll call of who is out on
the hunt.

 

 

Good luck and happy hunting!
