Wanna Fox Hunt? Start Here!,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Transmitter Hunting: Radio Direction Finding Simplified (Paperback)
If you'd like to get involved in foxhunting, get this book. These experienced operators describe multiple techniques and strategies for discovering hidden amateur radio transmitters. They describe how to build and modify equipment to make hunts more successful. These same techniques can be used to track down repeater jammers or stolen equipment. Material here for the rankest novice as well as advanced tips to help the most experienced. Well worth the price.John Elder, KO6X

Absolute must have for the amateur direction finder.,
By Sparcz44004 (Ashtabula, OH USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Transmitter Hunting: Radio Direction Finding Simplified (Paperback)
This is a great book by a radio amateur. It covers many aspects of direction finding and has details for hands-on projects. Many hams I know have a well worn copy of this book. If you're into direction finding or foxhunts, this is the reference/project/design/instruction book for you.
