It’s Memorial Day weekend, which is a perfect time for a foxhunt! As such, SECARS will be sponsoring its first foxhunt, which will occur on Saturday May 28 at 1 PM. This will be an on-foot foxhunt at the Thompson Brook Preserve in Gales Ferry (765 Long Cove Road in Gales Ferry, https://avalonia.org/preserves/atkinson-family-preserve-thompson-brook-preserve ). We will have 7 fox boxes out. These will be on the following frequencies:
146.335 – 1 mW – continuous transmitter – Fox H on our website
145.910 – 25 mW – continuous transmitter – Fox I on our website
146.585 – 0.5 W – nearly continuous transmitter – Fox J on our website
146.565 – 1 W – nearly continuous transmitter – Fox K on our website
147.455, on 3 seconds, off 3 seconds, Carrier only – Fox C on our website
147.42, no pl, touch tone 1 to activate – Tones and CW ID, 1 minute on time – new fox born recently.
I will be hunting for the last two foxes, which will be placed by Dave, K1DCT. I will place the other foxes shortly before the hunt. Bring your foxhunting gear for what will be a great time. If you do not have gear and would like to learn, you can meet me at 757 Long Cove Rd. at 1 PM and hunt with me. I will have a tape-measure Yagi and an attenuator. Send me an e-mail at KE1IUMark@gmail.com if you would like to meet and hunt as a team.
Many thanks,
