Fox Hunt Review – Oct 2022

Posted on October 20, 2022October 20, 2022by Cam - W4XXV

On October 8th, 2022, it was a clear morning with a feeling of fall in the air.

Review – Field Day 2022

Posted on July 26, 2022July 26, 2022by Cam - W4XXV

Review – Winter Field Day 2022

Posted on February 2, 2022July 26, 2022by Cam - W4XXV

It was a blustery afternoon on Saturday January 29th, 2022, and we were glad to have put up our antennas the day prior. Erecting the antennas during snow is much preferred to windy and 16 degrees! First up was establishing the warmth, as Steve WD4JIX used his scouting skills to kindle the hearth and heart […]

Foxhunt Review – July 2021

Posted on July 31, 2021February 13, 2022by Cam - W4XXV
foxhunt crew july 2021

A Slippery Situation It was suspected that the day was to become a steamy one, but as hams gathered at Bisset Park in Radford, it was more about the gear, helping new hams, and building trust in your equipment. Three foxes were hidden by yours truly, W4XXV, and consisted of two plastic ammo cans, and […]

Getting Ready for Special Event

Posted on May 18, 2021May 18, 2021by Cam - W4XXV

I bought this 10’x10′ Cover Pro Shed at Harbor Freight to use at Audie Murphy Special Event. The canopy went together fairly easy. It took Mike and me about an hour but could be done quicker now that we have experience. It seems sturdy enough.I like having the four walls in case of bad weather. […]

Posted on June 17, 2020July 28, 2020by Cam - W4XXV
