FCARC Fox Hunt - July 6th NEW FOX - Lower Power

WI9MMM's picture

Radio is about experimenting. Well... we are going to try a new, lower power fox. The "normal" fox is 700mW. The July fox will be 53mW.
46mW on WSPR made it to Antartica. I guess we'll all see how far 53mW goes in the Fox Valley. We may have to work together on this hunt. :-)

Saturday, July 6th. 0730 - 1630 - or until the batteries run out. The fox manufacturer says it should last until about 3:30pm. We'll see.
147.555MHz Somewhere in the Fox Cities. See Map.
Since Fox Hunting is a receive only activity, all future and current Hams are welcome to participate.
PLEASE DO NOT post where it is when you find it. A simple "Found it!" on our Facebook page is enough. Allow others the thrill of the hunt.
There are NO prizes.
Depending on the difficulty hearing the new fox, sharing a grid square might be in order.
Use your best judgement on what information you share. After noon... hints can be blatant.
