Next on-foot hunt near Santa Barbara 8/11/07
by Marvin Johnston 26 Jul '07

26 Jul '07

Lake Los Carneros Park in Goleta, CA will be the site of southern California's next international-style on-foot foxhunt on Saturday, August 11, 2007. A ham radio license and knowledge of radio equipment are not required. Bring the kids and grandkids, then go out on the course with them! This event is being hosted by Marvin Johnston KE6HTS. There will be five fox transmitters on 146.565 MHz FM with international-rules timing. The site area is slightly less than 140 acres. It is relatively flat, making it a good site for foxtailers of all skill levels. Full-color orienteering maps will be available. Some practice transmitters may also be on the air for you to find. The main 5-fox hunt begins at 10:30 AM. Hunters may start any time until 12:30 PM. Courses close at 2 PM. Electronic scoring will be used for the international-rules hunt. If you have an "e-stick," be sure to bring it. There is a $5 fee to cover expenses related to the use of Los Angeles Orienteering Club's e-punch equipment and maps. There will be no charge to hunt the beginner transmitters. Bring any 2-meter RDF "sniffing" gear you have. If you don't have any, just bring your handi-talkie or scanner. If you don't have that, come anyway, because a limited number of RDF sets will be available for loan. Also be sure to bring anything you'll need while going after those radio foxes, such as munchies, bottled water and sunscreen. Bring your own compass, protractor and pencil if you plan to use them for map marking. Make sure that all batteries are fresh. Meet at the Stow House Parking Lot just off of Los Carneros Road. >From US 101 about 8 miles west of downtown Santa Barbara, take the Los Carneros Road exit, head north about 1/4 mile and turn right into the parking lot. There should be plenty of free parking. Look for the orange-and-white orienteering flag. A map to help you get to the site is at www.homingin.com Special note: The annual Santa Barbara Hamfest takes place on Sunday, the day after this ARDF event. There will be a flea market, exhibitors, demonstrations, VE testing and contests, including the famous transformer toss. Why not make a weekend of it? 73, Joe Moell K0OV USA ARDF Coordinator

Free 8-foot 2.4 GHz Antenna
by Rodney S Fritz 16 Jul '07

16 Jul '07

Greetings, I have an 8-foot grid dish with 2.4 GHz feed that needs a new home immediately, even if it's only temporary. This is a heavy duty aluminum (relatively light) commercial antenna, suitable for any mountaintop or QTH. For transport, the antenna breaks down to into two halves. Do you know someone who needs such a fine antenna? How about a place to store it until someone needs it? We would prefer for someone to pick it up in Santa Barbara, but if that's not possible we might be able to deliver it. The price is right: free if you pick it up or the cost of gas if we need to deliver out of the area. Please respond quickly. It needs a new home tomorrow! 73, WB9KMO Rod Fritz, 805-637-0985
