2013-11-21 Foxhunting DVD and Group Build

Greg (AB8RG) will present a 28 Min. DVD on Foxhunting. This video will explain in great detail… the necessity for the Yagi antenna and attached offset attenuator.
Following the DVD presentation… we will be collecting funds from those interested in completing the Tape Measure Yagi project complete with offset attenuator (used for foxhunting / search and rescue) so we can order the parts necessary. Please come prepared to submit funds if you wish to participate with the group build.
Cost should be ~ $35. - $40 for both the antenna project and offset attenuator.
