Hunt date: July 21, 2007
Start: 10:00 AM from anywhere.
One hidden transmitter, 146.565 MHz.
Scoring method: None.
The hider; Paul.
The winner was; None

I did not take an initial bearing however, I did use Rich-KN6FW's bearing towards the KRE radio station and festival. I figured I would just use my Doppler to find the Fox. Lucky I used Rich's bearing because I did not hear the Fox until I got within 3.5 miles of it.
