The Hunt Is On

This is not your parent’s Fox Hunt, this one is special — 24 hours long!!!

Inviting all local clubs and friends of Sierra Foothills ARC to the first 24-hour, wide area Fox Hunt. The hidden fox transmitter will be located within a 20-mile radius of downtown Auburn, CA. The 2-meter transmitter will be turned on at 9:30 am on October 26th, 2024, and turned off at 10 am on October 27th. This is a self-timed event from a starting point to the transmitter’s location. Fox hunters may start at any time during the 24-hour event. Start your stopwatch timing when leaving the parking lot of the Historic Auburn Courthouse located at 101 Maple St, Auburn, CA 95603. You may hunt solo or as a team. All team members must leave the starting point at or after the stopwatch timing has started.

Help A Ham

We all enjoy a hobby backed by science and theory however sometimes we’re touched by events that can’t be quantified and just don’t make any sense. With permission from the family, I’d like to ask for your help in supporting Amir (N6ADL) and Michelle Larian. For those new to the club, Amir has been a member of SFARC for some time and was our previous webmaster.

Amir and Michelle Larian welcomed their second daughter, Zahra June, into this world on August ninth, 2024. Zahra was born with an extremely rare neurological disease that severely limited her time with Amir and Michelle. Donations will go towards medical bills and any other expenses that arise during this time, while Michelle & Amir are both on leave from work for an extended amount of time. Anything you can do to help is appreciated.
