In the world of amateur radio, groups of hams will often put
together a transmitter hunt (also called "fox hunting") in order to
hone their radio direction finding skills to locate one or more hidden
radio transmitters broadcasting. The Defcon Fox Hunt will require
participants to locate a number of hidden radio transmitters
broadcasting at very low power which are hidden throughout the
conference. Each transmitter will provide a clue or code which
will prove the player found the fox transmitter. A map
with rough search areas will be given to participants to guide them on
their hunt. Additional hints and tips will be provided throughout
Defcon at the contest table to help people who find themselves stuck.
A small prize to be determined will be given to each participant who
locates all of the foxes each day.
Expanded this year with increased difficulty each day.
Friday: Foxes in a small area, non moving
Saturday: Foxes in a larger area, with one moving.
Sunday: Foxes are on the move. The hunt is on!
There will also be a beginner friendly, no radio required, Infrared
LED Fox Hunt running everyday which participants can use their cameras
on their phones to find!
