A quick reminder. The 80M QRP Fox Hunt will be held Tuesday night local
(0200-0330 UTC, Friday) between 3550 and 3570. One will be in the
bottom 20 kHz and one in the top. The two Foxes this week will be
Chris, VA3NR, and our own Bill, AA4LR, secretary of SECC, who is in the
Atlanta area. Only 5 watt or less stations may participate, so turn
your outdown to 5 watts and give it a try. Exchange is: RST, SPC,
Name, Power. The Foxes will "CQ FOX" and will indicate where they are
listening if they are listening "split." They usually start off
listening split and the go simplex when the pileup dies down. This is
good practice for working DX. Full QSK is very helpful, so you can stop
calling when the FOX answers someone, but is not required, of course.
Hope many of you will join in the fun. The Fox Hunts are repeated at
the same times on Thursdays, but on 40M between 7030 and 7050. 73,
John, K4BAI.
