The cover story of On the Air’s September/October 2023 issue, “Foxhunting Basics,” doesn’t have anything to do with chasing down a woodland creature. Foxhunting is a radio direction-finding activity that you can enjoy with a radio club or group, or even with just one other friend — and they don’t even have to be a ham! Rob Zielfelder, N1NUG, explains how to get started with a couple of handheld radios and a directional antenna that you can make from inexpensive hardware store materials.
One player hides somewhere with a radio, and sends intermittent transmissions, while the other player tracks them with the help of the radio’s signal meter and a map. Listen to this month’s episode for more information on how to join the fun.
