The VK3YQN team ran Friday night’s hunt, starting at K-Mart Burwood. The first and fourth hunts were three-legged, with teams being scored on the time spent on each leg. The second hunt was the ubiquitous YQN sniffer hunt. The third hunt was a VK3ROG simplex repeater hunt, where hounds were required to transmit an over to the fox, which would record and re-broadcast it (and thus provide a signal to DF).
Hunts were run on 2m only.
Scores were as follows (out of a total maximum of 80):
Hunt 1 2 3 4 Total Place VK3TKQ 10+10+10=30 4 3 9+4+10=23 60 5 VK3BLN 10+2+10=22 7 4 2+10+10=22 55 4 VK3EM 9+10+10=29 10 10 10+0+10=20 69 6 VK3WWW 1+5+0=6 0 3 1+2+10=13 22 1 VK3PW 4+0+1=5 7 0 3+10+1=14 26 2 VK3TVB 0+4+10=14 10* 5 0+1+0=1 30 3
* Would have been 8 except for lack of creek-crossing enthusiasm by VK3MZ.
Well done to VK3WWW.
Next month’s hunt is to be run by VK3BLN…? 19 November 1998.
Cheerio.
