****NEWS FLASH*** Fox Hunt, 10 AM Sunday November 15th at Beavertail
NCRC is contemplating holding a Fox Hunt sometime in the fall of 2015. Various club members have purchased small transmitters that send out synchronized messages. While we will probably begin with a single hidden transmitter, if we deploy FIVE, then we can compete under IARU Region 2 ARDF rules.
Some links of interest to Fox Hunters can be found here:

Note that Bob Miller is the US distributor of the VK3YNG DF Sniffer. And if you happened to have an interest in satellite work, the slightly more expensive Arrow 146/437/10 would do great both for RDF and satellite work — just don’t install the 437 elements.
