FOX Hunting

Have been a member of a team in the Melbourne, Victoria monthly 2 metre fox hunts for the last 47 years. Have a look at the VK3VT Fox Hunt Beam  that is used by most of the teams in the Melbourne area.  For those looking for details of Ian VK3MZ's 80M ARDF Receiver, a copy of the article is available here (PDF - about 1.4 Meg)

One form of two metre sniffer uses a "mixer Box" ahead of a hand held transceiver. The one I have used came from the 1995 ARRL Handbook the article is here Mixer Box Attenuator 

When hunting on 10M we use an amplified loop that was described by Gil Sones VK3AUI (SK) in Amateur Radio Magazine April 1979. A copy of his article is available here 10M DF Loop
