Monthly Fox Hunt
Location, Schedule, and Details: https://www.w6ek.org/activities/foxhunt#latest

SFARC runs monthly Fox Hunts where members hone skills in locating hidden transmitters. Fox Hunting skills are not only fun but may be useful in situations where a transmitter needs to be located (e.g. search & rescue or tracking down interference).

Fox Hunts are a fun outdoor activity. Regional hunts may involve driving around and taking bearings with a Yagi to triangulate on a hidden transmitter. Low-power hunts may involve walking through parks  & neighborhoods to find one or more hidden transmitters. Fox hunt equipment ranges from simple TOA (time of arrival) devices, yagi antennas, and or doppler techniques.

*CLICK HERE* ( https://www.w6ek.org/activities/foxhunt#latest ) for fox hunt guidelines, files, and the latest schedule.

HELP SFARC

Our repeaters are ALWAYS free to use but not free to maintain. It takes a village, time, and money to keep the W6EK repeaters on the air. Think about helping SFARC by donating, every little bit helps and it’s tax deductible.

DONATIONS ARE MADE IN $10 INCREMENTS

Example:
QTY 1 = $10
