Ron-W8RU, Please email me at: ejim@... to coordinate our efforts for next thursdays fox hunt. Jim - KG0PP

I've only been back on the air for about 6 months and am brand new to QRP Fox Hunting but... I am guessing that what I'm experiencing right now is the lowest point of the solar cycle (I hope!) on a band extremely affected by the same. I haven't worked a fox in the 3 hunts I've participated in, thus far - and didn't even hear a fox or hound, last night. Some of that is surely my lack of experience, some of it is the known problems with my antenna but I'm hoping most of that is due to conditions. I think if any rule change is in order, it would be: No poor or variable conditions on 40 meters. None. Zero-tolerance. I want it stopped and I want it stopped NOW. Lloyd - I'm trusting you or Doc to take care of this. Please let me know when you're done. 72 Kip N6NVP

Just one other thing worth noting. All those other CQs and QSOs between 7.030 and 7.050 may not be QRP and Fox related but they are very important. As you go up the band listen to each QSO for a little bit. After all, listening will help you with improving your code copy. Don't worry, you have a full two hours to try to catch a Fox. But what you can learn is the "propagation of the moment". If you are a K6 on the west coast and the Fox is a W2, and you've heard 3 QSOs from "2" land, you can assume the propagation gods are favoring you tonight. If the W2s are getting weaker but the K8 QSO in Chicago is getting stronger, propagation has probably passed the east coast for you for the day. Plus these side QSOs can be quite entertaining to listen to. It all part of the allure of "weak signal work" which probably sums up what we do with QRP anyway. The good DX is usually the weak signal no one else is bothering to check out. 72 and a half, Steve --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

Hi All, Sorry for the hounds I missed. I know there were many! 62 QSO's I pulled the 34 check logs out.. but they included SPAIN, PORTUGAL, England and a UA station. You hounds are a vicious group Hi Hi.

Ok.. looks like I messed up big time... was looking at a calendar yesterday and looks like I had the fox hunt down for Tuesdays. Was it ever on Tuesdays? When does the 20 meter summer schedule tend to start? Thanks, Steve

Hi All, If anyone would like something changed please let me know by Tomorrow Sunday. I will be posting the final log Tomorrow night.

Just out of curiosity, what changed? John K8WDN

I request that the fox(s) eventually tell us where they were, either as an addition to the log or in a separate message/posting. Chris kc0atc

I will be one of your foxii tommorrow evening starting at 9:00 PM EST (7:00 PM MST). Since this fox will be stuffed full of turkey he will be a little slow, 16-18 WPM. The den hosts a TenTec Omni VI opt3 to an elevated HF6V running 5 w. Hope band conditions are better than previous hunts. Jim KG0PP

Got Ron W8RU in the bag....not a peep out of Jim. Brent WB4X

Finally got Jim KG0PP, he was a tough one to bag. Got them both this week. I think this is the first time this year that I got both Foxes. Brent WB4X

What fun! My first time as Fox and I was a little nervous to say the least. Thanks to everyone for going so easy on me. I apologize for those I missed, conditions were extremely weak to the east coast and south east. 40 m was very short with strong signals from CO to TX, NM, KS, CA, OK, MN and WI.

well, I've got to go to the office this thursday at 9 pm, to meet with my IT guy...so I guess I'll start by trying to snag a pelt or two with my K1 from the car, with a Hamstick...

Well like the last 3 weeks I got nothing to show for my efforts in Ohio but I see this week 2 of our ohioians got a pelt.... congratulations to them and maybe things are getting better. Maybe it is time to try a different type antenna. Now that the holiday is over maybe I will stick something up in the back yard. Will be in there this week again.... Bill N8WS

I wanted to make sure you'd gotten my request for correction to the fox hunt log for 11/25/04. I was the contact listed as: "0239 N6NV 559 Kip CA 5w". My correct call is N6NVP. (Everything else looks good.) You were my first fox ever, Jim. Thanks for the time you spent on this and I look forward to catching you, again. 72 Kip N6NVP #-#-#-# Kip Williams N6NVP | San Diego, CA | San Diego County | DM12ks #-#-#-#

Kip, I will amend my log. Thank you and thanks for working me during the hunt. Jim KG0PP

Hi, Guys-- ET will be getting on his bike and heading for the auspiciously full moon tomorrow night. Yes, I'll be one of your Foxes and I've got a pelt here with your name on it. If you haven't been participating in the Hunts, please visit www.qrpfoxhunt.org for all the details. In accordance with the rules, I'll be somewhere in the vicinity of 7.040, but I'm not going to tell you where. And when you do find me, PLEASE do not post a spot on the list! It's not fair to people who won't see your message till the next day. I will be working split at the beginning-- please listen for UP or DN when I call CQ and call me above or below my transmitting freq. How far off you should go is kind of indefinite, but it should be at least 500Hz (half a KC). Most RITs are capable of putting you off that far, but if you can't work split don't panic-- I'll be listening closer and closer to "zero-beat" as the hunt progresses. If history is any guide, I will be working zero beat for the last half hour of the hunt and will also be happy to take slow down as much as needed. The moon is full, the gods of propagation have been propitiated, and there's plenty of "lead" in my pencil. Do stop by and pick up a pelt! Good luck in the Hunt... 73 Marshall Emm N1FN/VK5FN n1fn@...
