Schedule of Transmitter Hunts

Last update on: Monday, February 11, 2008

Transmitter Hunts sponsored by:
LARK (Livermore Amateur Radio Klub)
and

SBARA (South Bay Amateur Radio Association).

FIRST (1st) Saturday of every month is the Fremont beginners hunt.
1) Two transmitters will be hidden. EASY beginners and a HARD advanced transmitter.
2) Beginners will only hunt the EASY transmitter and stay with the fox; help is available.
3) Advanced hunters will hunt the HARD transmitter first, where mileage is taken and then the EASY fox.
4) Mileage to the HARD fox is only valid, if both transmitters are found.
5) Beginners may hunt the HARD fox, time permitting.

THIRD (3rd) Saturday of every month is the Fox's choice Hunt.
The Fox can hide within any listed start point boundaries.
1) Fremont Hunt.
2) Pleasanton Hunt.
3) Redwood City Hunt.
4) Santa Clara Hunt.
5) Bay Hunt.
6) Pack-A-Lunch.

FIFTH (5th) Saturday of a rare month is the PACK-A-LUNCH HUNT.
1) Usually starting at 10:00 AM and usually has no boundaries.

NOTE: We will have a drawing at the start point, to select the next Fox.
Old note: If there are no volunteer FOXES, the winner of a hunt will be the FOX for the next months hunt! (ie: If you win the Fremont Hunt, you are responsible to be the FOX or find a FOX for the next Fremont Hunt).

For directions or questions on any event,
please call Rich-KN6FW at (925) 462-1467.

Use 446.000 Mhz Simplex, if you can't use or don't know the talk-in frequency.
