DRAFT LOG, N1FN
Hi, Guys--
Finally got this done-- sorry for the delay. I'm sure there are some typos-- I note there are still a couple of question marks where I simply could not read what I had written. The hunt was fun, as usual, and propagada was, well, interesting. The band went somewhere else from 0206 to 0221 when it came back. I'd all but given up and was surprised to find a few more customers. 73 DE ET, N1FN -- 0100 N9NE 549 WI TODD 5W 0101 KL7V/5 559 OK SAM 5W 0102 K5FSE 559 GA JACK 5W 0102 KZ5J 559 TX PAT 5W 0103 K0MAX 559 MN MAX 5W 0104 W2LJ 559 NJ LARRY 5W 0104 WS4S 559 TN CONRAD 5W 0105 VA3NR 559 ON CHAS 5W 0106 AD6JV 559 VA BILL 5W 0106 N0TK 559 CO DAN 5W 0107 WA0ITP 559 IA TERRY 5W 0108 K5EOA 559 LA WAYNE 5W 0108 WE6KG 559 AB NORM 5W 0109 K0EVZ 569 NM DOC 5W 0110 AC5JH 579 OK TOM 5W 0111 N9LR 559 WI BILL 5W 0111 NV4V 559 KY PETE 5W 0112 WA8BXN 559 OH MIKE 5W 0113 AK5X 559 TX BILL 5W 0114 K8WDN 559 OH JOHN 5W 0114 WD8WTU 559 OH DENNIS 5W 0115 KJ4QF 559 VA KEVIN 5W 0116 K5JHP 559 TX BILL 5W 0117 W1FMR 579 NH JIM 5W 0118 K2ZN 559 NY AL 5W 0118 K4BYR 559 GA BILL 5W 0119 K6VNX 559 CA ARLEN 5W 0120 KB5FCF 559 OK JOEL 4W 0120 W9XU 559 WI LON 5W 0121 N0AR 559 MN SCOTT 5W 0122 N3ZPG 559 OH FRANK 4W 0123 VE6QX 559 AB DARIN 5W 0125 VA6RF 559 AB EARL 5W 0126 W5USJ 559 TX CHUCK 5W 0127 K2EKM 559 VA BILL 5W 0128 NK6A 559 CA DON 5W 0129 K8KFJ 559 WV GARY 5W 0130 K9EUA 559 IA KEVIN 5W 0131 KB5UDB 559 LA CHRIS 5W 0132 K4KO 559 TN GREG 5W 0133 K3PH 559 PA BOB 5W 0134 W9UQB 559 AZ MIKE 5W 0135 K0CD 599 MO ROB 5W 0136 N5KIP 599 GA DICK 5W 0137 N5IB 559 LA JIM 5W 0138 W5HNS 559 TX HENRY 5W 0139 W5KDJ 559 TX WAYNE 500mW 0140 WONTA 559 CO DICK 5W 0141 AD5NE 559 LA BRAD 5W 0143 AC7A 559 AZ TOM 5W 0144 K3ESE 559 MD LL 5W 0145 N8WS 559 OH BILL 5W 0147 W9NX 559 IA KENT 5W 0150 N7NLU 539 OR KARL 5W 0152 K7TP 579 CA PHIL 2W 0153 KV2X 559 NY TOM 5W 0155 K0LNA 559 TX DWAIN 5W 0157 AD6FR 559 CA JIM 5W 0159 N1CCW 559 NY HERB? 5W 0203 KH6HHS 559 VA TALLEY 50W 0205 K1NY 559 NY GERRY 5W 0206 KF9LI 559 MD NATE 5W 0223 K2FA 599 NY PAT 5W 0223 KI0II 559 CO RON 5W 0225 AB3CV 559 MD JIM 4W 0226 AF4PP 579 GA CHUCK 5W 0300 N1FN 559 CO FOX 5W -- 73 Marshall Emm N1FN/VK5FN n1fn@...

I'm glad the Hunt was only 90 minutes long! For a
while, I was wishing it was only thirty minutes long! But then, I'd have missed handing out First Ever Pelts to WB0JNR, Roger, our Fox Webmaster, who has now proven that, yes, he does know Morse code... my new neighbor, Jim, AB3CV, who worked me on ground-wave from 20 miles away...and Karl, N7NLU...might've been his First Fox Pelt, too. In fact, I worked the entire Fox Committee last night: Doc, Marshall, Todd and Roger...a first! (Bruce is on 'vacation' for the Summer.) Total pelts, with Foxii: 39. First 30 minutes: 30 Peltii. Second thirty minutes: three Peltii. Third thirty minutes: four Peltii. Anyway, here's the first swing through this log thing - send any corrections direct.

Re: Fox Tomorrow Night!

Marshall:
Many thanks for the pelt tonite. You had a good signal and lots of hungry hunters on your tail. I liked the steady and rapid pace you were setting right from the get-go! Here's hoping you had a great outing. Thanks for serving as a FOX this Summer. It will be interesting to see your log. Earlier in the afternoon only a very few signals had been observed on 20, but at the time the FOX hunts began suddenly there were many, many loud signals everywhere, some of them true ear-splitters. Wow. 73, --Doc/K0EVZ [Original Message]as ET from the rainy high plains of Saudi Aurora, CO. I'll start promptly at7PM MDT and hope you can find me within 10KHz of 14.060.at the whim of a hat (as Mr. Bush would say), and I generally slow down andwork zero-beat towards the end. |

Lloyd:
Unless I miss my guess (!), I may have bagged you first tonite. If so, wow and many thanks. Had just barely returned home from an emergency CT scan of the old abdomen. Luckily I had the K1 already switched on, so all I had to do was grab the antenna, hook it up, and I heard you right away. Wow. Thanks for coming right back. Hope you had a busy evening. Earlier the band had not sounded all that great, but at the start of the hunt, at least, there were lots of signals. As always I was amazed at how loud QRP signals can be coming from yagis. Will be interested to see your log. Thanks for serving as a FOX this evening, and GL. 73, --Doc/K0EVZ [Original Message]<fpqrp-l@...>; QFOX <qfox@...> Date: 6/15/2005 2:05:01 PM |
Summer 2005 Fox Hunt Rules
Lloyd Lachow
Since we've not been able to get the web page
updated, and the Hunt is upon us, I thought I'd post the current rules, with dates and times for the Summer Hunts. The schedule, along with these rules, will be up on the site ASAP. Rules: GENERAL The hunts will take place each Thursday evening (US time) on 20 Meters, for ten weeks, from Thursday, June 16, 2005 through Thursday, August 18, 2005. Each hunt will start at 0100Z, and last for 90 minutes (last entry no later than 0229Z.) The local Thursday evening starting times will be as follows in North America: 6:00pm Pacific 7:00pm Mountain 8:00pm Central 9:00pm Eastern In each week there will be two Hunts, with two Foxes operating simultaneously. GUIDELINES ??? 1.1 The Fox tries to complete as many CW QRP QSOs as possible during the 90-minute hunt. ??? 1.2 Each Fox will have two sessions or "runs" during the season, and the Fox's score for the season will be the aggregate QSO total for the two runs. ??? 1.3 No later than 5PM EDT on the day before a Hunt, the Fox will post a notice on QRP-l and/or QFOX providing useful details such as his QTH, equipment, antenna(s), etc. Because many Hounds read the list's daily digest, changes after that time are to be avoided, as far as possible. Since it's a "Hunt," the Fox will not post his starting frequency. ??? 1.4 The Fox will operate within +/- 10Khz of 14.060 MHz. ??? 1.5 The Fox will operate at an output level of 5W. ??? 1.6 The Fox will call "CQ FOX DE [callsign]," "QRZ FOX," or otherwise identify himself as the Fox during the progress of the hunt. ??? 1.7 The Fox may QSY to avoid QRM, but will indicate his intention to do so by sending ???FOX QSY,??? or similar. ??? 1.8 The Hounds should avoid transmitting on the Fox's transmitting frequency. Splits (separate transmit/receive capability or (XIT/RIT) of up to 5 Khz may be used by the Fox, but the Fox need not indicate where he is listening. The Fox can be expected to change his listening frequency often, depending on the number of stations calling and the frequency spread. Hounds who cannot work "split" or do not have RIT should, nevertheless, operate as far from the Fox's transmitting frequency as possible, or wait until late in the Hunt when the Fox is working zero-beat. ??? 1.9 The posting of "spots" (or reports about fox activity) that indicate a Fox's operating frequency is prohibited during a Hunt, and will result in disqualification. ??? 1.10 A valid QSO is defined as the exchange of: - Signal Report - QTH - Operator's Name, and - Power Output Examples: 559 CO ET 500MW 579 ND DOC 5W The Fox's information may, in some cases, be "deemed" to be exchanged. That is, the Hound need not acknowledge the Fox's information, and the Fox may work a list. For example, the Fox may call several stations and acknowledge their information one by one, while sending his own information only once for the list. Hounds must be operating at QRP power levels (5W or less) if the contact is to count in the competition. Hounds may participate at QRPp power levels (1W or less,) in which case they should report their power as 1W or as mW, as appropriate. Foxes may work any station, including QRO stations, for Fox credits, because of the possibility of multiple contacts with stations not participating competitively as Hounds. Hounds may work each Fox only once per session. Hounds, having worked a Fox, must not work the Fox again using a different call sign (e.g. a club call). Foxes may also compete as Hounds, and may claim one point for their own sessions as the Fox, and one point for each other Fox operating at the same time (this is to avoid having Foxes abandon their frequencies in order to work each other). ??? 1.11 Each Fox will post his log to QRP-l and/or QFOX as soon as practical after the completion of each hunt, ideally within 24 hours of completion of the Hunt. The log is to be in ASCII text format, showing one QSO per line with the following information: Time Call RST (received) QTH Operator Number/Power ??? For example: 0101 N1FN 559 CO ET 500MW ??? Extraneous information such as colons in the time entries, dates, and "QSO numbers" are to be deleted from the Fox's log before posting. ??? 2.0 Hounds will ANSWER a CQ or QRZ? call by the FOX. Hounds may not call CQ or call the Fox, nor should they work each other in close proximity to the Hunt. ??? 2.1 In his notice to QRP-l and/or QFOX, the Fox may include suggestions as to preferred operating procedure, but in the absence of any other instructions, the Hound should send his call sign only once after a call by the Fox or the conclusion of a QSO. ??? 2.2 At the end of the Hunt, the winners will be everyone who participated! Certificates will be sent to the Hound who has worked the most Foxes, and the Fox who has worked the most Hounds. ??? 2.3 Good hunting, and make FUN your First Priority!

Other Fox tomorrow night

At Last! The Summer 20M Fox Hunt has finally rolled
around on the old calendar. I'll be one of the foxes tomorrow night (6/16) and operating as LL from the wooden living-room card table of Reisterstown, Maryland, the Old Line State. I'll start promptly at 6PM PDT and hope you can find me within 10KHz of 14.060. Don't forget it's only 90 minutes this summer! We'll end at 0230Z, and for that we thank our blessings (as Mr. Bush would say.) I also generally slow down and work zero-beat towards the end.

QRP Fox Hunt for Summer 2005...BEGINS THIS THURSDAY!
Lloyd Lachow
Oooohhhhh! Here's what we've all been waiting for!
Well, I have, anyway...The Foxii will be on the prowl this Thursday, June 16th local time, (actually 6/17 UTC)on 20 meters...and they will be handing out Peltii for only 90 minutes, from 0100-0230Z. The schedule of all the Foxii is still being finalized, but the first two victim-volunteers are the intrepid N1FN, ET, operating from the High Desert of Colorado, and myself, K3ESE, LL, operating from the card table in my living room in Maryland. For newbies, or a refresher, I suggest you visit the Fox web page at and familiarize yourself with the rules, maybe even check out the Fox Hunt Primer at . Please remember that there has been a recent rule change: No Hound may post any spots for any Fox during a Hunt. Twenty meters has been sounding good recently, and can be expected to go longer during the Hunt, so plan on trying for the closer Fox first, once you find them. Be there! Have fun! May the skip be on our side! LL/K3ESE __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around |
