HAM RADIO FOX HUNT
in-person contest
Friday: 10:00-16:00 Saturday: 10:00-16:00 Sunday: 10:00-13:00
This contest is simple, and is designed to teach you the basics of transmitter direction finding and “fox hunting”. We offer multiple levels of difficulty – whether you’ve never done a fox hunt before or are a seasoned pro, you can participate in the hunt! Learning how to locate the source of radio signals is an important tool you can add to your hacker arsenal. Whether you’re hunting for a source of interference, a rogue wireless AP, or tracking down the FCC’s monitoring vans, the real-world skills you will gain from this contest will be invaluable.
To participate in the beginner IR foxhunt you will need a device that can receive IR light in the 900nm range – such as many cell phones and digital cameras!
To participate in the RF foxhunt(s) you will need a radio or a scanner that can receive signals in the 2m and/or 70cm Amateur Radio Bands (144.000 MHz - 146.000 MHz, 420.000 MHZ - 450.000 MHz).
