Off to a good start

Bill Harris
 

Band took a dip at 15. Thought it was over for the evening. Came back and nailed ET at 31. The next fox was 2800+ mile hop and I lied when I gave LL a 559. It was more like a 229. (I've got to reprogram the keyer.) LL asked for a confirmation on the call....Boy, I hope I confirmed the right one. Sounded like KXB...We'll see!
The band was quite in the PacNW and it made for a good hunt. C U Tues. on 8T
Carry_on
BillHarris_w7kxb


Got 2 2-night

 

Found LL early and then took a while to log the local fox ET. Nice to
have 2 good ops on the first hunt of the season. Lots of good hound
signals heard on the chase for N1FN.

Good for you Todd! I found Lloyd fairly quickly (0013) but haven't
found ET yet. I will keep scouring the bushes.

One down

I got ET right out of the gate since we are close, but not too close. I have been calling LL but he is working guys close to him and he just doesn't hear me. I will wait awhile.

PS: I'm using my big FT-857 which sure has a great receiver!


5 Min. Twofer! :-)

Todd Enders
 

LL gave me a trim right out of the gate. Found ET shortly
thereafter, and phoned home. :-) Good start to the season! :-)

72/73,

Todd, AG0T

Re: QRP-L dead?

While it's true we don't need QRP-L there are still a lot of Hounds that are not here. If we don't tell them it's happening they will not show up.

Hi Bart I just saw one from ET a minute ago appear on QRP-L. I get individual messages here.

Karl,
That is strange(that you didn't see anything about the fox hunt tonight on qrp-l. I saw both Lloyd's and ET's announcements---in fact, Lloyd forwarded ET's announcement to this list or I guess it wouldn't have shown here.
I guess you must not be getting al the qrp-l post. I do the digest and saw them both.

Winter schedule

 

Just FYI, avid Fox Fans, the schedule for this Season is still being
worked on. Almost there, but we're making an extra effort to try to
ensure a distribution of Foxii from as many parts of the continent as
we can. Please feel free to visit the site and submit a Fox
Application, if you'd like to try being on the other end of things!
Look for the completed schedule next week...

Looking forward to tonight

 

Looking forward to the Hunt tonight with my fingers crossed. I've been having a bunch of local QRN for the past few weeks on 40 Meters at night. I think it's something local, maybe a transformer on a phone pole or something. It goes away when it's raining and reappears when it's reasonably dry outside. In any event, it's been hampering my reception of signals on 40 Meters. With any luck I'll be a very happy hound tonight - I'm hoping I'm not looking to a whole season of QRN. This is a major reason why I did not jump on the chance to join a team that had vacancies.

Happily, 80 Meters has been clean as a whistle. So if the situation is a worst case scenario, at least I'll have the 80 Meter hunts to fall back on.

Fox need to know

karl larsen
 

I thought I signed up to be a Fox this winter on 40 meters as usual. I used the new thing on the web page which said it was recorded and I have since heard nothing. I think the Committee should at least let everyone who thinks they are a Fox receive an email saying yes your a Fox or no your not and about when you will be called on first.

I like to know a week in advance so I can get my message to QRP-L in time. Also I have some learning to do with my new radio. It has 3 CW memory slots and I need to put some stuff in and see how it works.

Fox Tomorrow Night!

 

What Marshall said:


Yes, it's that time of year and the 40M Fox Hunt kicks off tomorow eveing at
0100Z. That should be 9PM Eastern (8pm CDT, 7pm MDT, 6pm PDT etc).

I will be one of yer Foxes, operating as ET from the high plains of Colorado.
The other Fox will be Lloyd the Barber operating as LL from MD.

Odds are real good you'll be able to hear at least one of us, so please do get
on the air and take a crack at it. It's going to be a lot of fun,
and I have a
pelt with your name on it, just waiting for your call.

More details than you really need can be found on the web site at
http:/www.qrpfoxhunt.org.

May the Fox Be With You...
