| Registration: |
9:00 a.m. Hunt starts at
10:00 a.m. |
| Who? |
For GARC members and other
‘hams’ in teams of 2 or more per vehicle. (You’ll need "wheels" for this
one!). Non-hams can participate as long as they are with a licenced amateur. |
| What? |
Find a VHF transmitter that
sends a short signal every 10 or so minutes. Time is one factor. Distance travelled is
another. Equipment is a third. |

The "fox" will be
somewhere in or around Guelph (normal area covered by 2-metre simplex from centretown). |
| How? |
Hunt is done using
mobile/handie 2-metre receiving equipment. (No assistance from base stations allowed.) Vehicle (car, truck, motorcycle, whatever) needed,
and expect some footwork.
Teams must consist of at least two
persons. Hunt is directed by the Hunt Marshall. Hunt Marshall provides clues to assist
hunters. |
| How much? |
(Fee not finalized at
this time. No more than a few bucks a head. Cheap.) |
| What else? |
A Guelph area map + a
compass + a directional antenna + pen/notepad (These items are not essential but will be very
very useful.) |
