Hello all:
I will be W1AW/4 HIRAM GA in the 80M QRP Fox Hunt tonight. The other Fox
is AC7A, TOM, AZ. It runs 0200-0330Z Friday, which is Thursday night
local. The two foxes will be hiding between 3550 and 3570 kHz.
Exchange is RST, SPC, Name, Power. You can work only the two Foxes. I
will be using my FT1000MP at 5W output and a coax fed 80M dipole in an
inverted vee configuration with the apex at about 55 feet. I will start
out listening up about one kHz and will indicate that by sending CQ FOX
DE W1AW/4 UP. After the pile up dies down, I will be listening simplex
and will stop sending UP. Work only the two foxes and run no more than
5W. Remember that spotting is not permitted in this hunt even if the fox
is using a special call. 73/72, John, K4BAI.
