What is a foxhunt?
Also called “radio direction finding”, It is a radio sport, a friendly competition to locate hidden transmitters using a handheld receiver which can determine direction of the transmitted signal. It’s fun and it’s easy to learn the technique and you do not need an Amateur Radio license.
