Hello all: Tuesday evening EST, 0200-0330 UTC Wednesday, I will be one
of two QRP 5W "Foxes" between 3550 and 3570 kHz calling CQ FOX. The
other will be Bob KI0G in TX. One of us will be in the bottom 10 kHz of
the segment and the other in the top 10 kHz. Other stations running 5W
or less are invited to call us and attempt to obtain a "pelt" by a QSO.
Exchange is: RST, SPC, Name, Power. We will no doubt be listening
split, probably up about 1, at the start and will indicate that by "UP,"
"U," or maybe "U1." When the pileup of QRP callers dies down, we will
likely be listening on our transmit frequencies for callers. Full
information can be found on a web page by searching for "QRP Fox Hunts."
These can be fun and I hope many of you will join in the fun and work
both me and Bob. Only the two Foxes may be contacted in this particular
activity. This event occurs most Tuesday nights during the fall,
winder, and early spring. There is an identical 40M QRP Fox Hunt on
Thursdays. During the summers, the Fox Hunts are held on 20M. 73,
John, K4BAI.
