Westford Foxes on the Loose, September 1, 2019
Andy Stewart, KB1OIQ, writes on the foxhunting list on September 1, 2019 at 11:24 AM:
The KB1OIQ 2m and 80m foxes have been deployed. I will leave them out until Tuesday evening around 6 PM. I’m 99% certain the 2m battery will last. The lifetime of the 80m battery has been improved but only experimentation will show me how long it will last.
The 2m fox frequency is 146.565 MHz. The 80m fox frequency is the TV color burst frequency: 3.5795 MHz.

KB1MGI: I still have your 80m fox receiver. Please contact me so I can get it back to you.
Have fun and 73,
