Chairperson Purpose "Fox" Hunting

Ray Fletcher ------- KB7VMS

To develop skills and techniques to locate radio transmitters as part of the Amateur Radio Hobby. These skills are useful in helping to eliminate repeater interference from simplex users who stray onto input frequencies, users with equipment failures such as stuck microphones or transmitters, and serious malicious jammers.

In addition, there are amateur radio groups in the Puget Sound area that conduct recreational hidden transmitter "Fox Hunts." Anyone interested should contact Ray, KB7VMS for more information. Check the Puget Sound Radio Direction Finding site for additional information on this part of our hobby.
