Mini All Day
Transmitter hunt
Hider: Doug WA6RJN
For the last hunt (actually last month) I clustered the
Ts somewhat close together. For this month's start anytime,
anywhere hunt I hid the main T1 next to La Cumbre Peak north
of Santa Barbara ( 34° 29.671'N 119° 42.758'W ). It
was a 4-watt T into a horizontal 6-element "coat hanger"
beam pointed toward LA. The other seven Ts were hid at
intervals starting at Ventura. The idea was to hear a new T,
find it and move on toward the main T then hear another new
T.
I was very happy to see that N6AIN was back on the
hunt after his recent illness.
N6AIN/N6EKS found T10 (3:28PM) ( 34° 17.138' N
119° 17.701 W )
WB6JPI found T7,T9, T1, and T11 (12:35PM). Winner!
T4, T5, and T6 were not found and their locations may be
used for a hunt to be named later.
