The hunt by Victor VE2GDZ
 
 

I had already participated in a transmitter hunt and I had found the transmitter but I did not realise it.  The radio was under my feet!
 

I had heard some much talk on the coming Challenge Hunt on the local machine that I wanted to participate but with my camera.  Transportation was offered by Raymond VE2IPA.
 

Raymond VE2IPA arrived at my home early … well a little after sun up.  I came down to get into the BMW accepting that my body was complaining.
 
 

 

 

It is so early that the rays from the Sun are at an angle. Doesn’t the board remind you of Star Trek?   Raymond searching for gizmabobs to assemble the Doppler.   We see the two Dopplers.  All items are easily accessed from the driving position.
         

 

 

The Olympic Stadium hinting on the correct direction.   He is not talking to a Martians and the thing on his chest has nothing to do with his heart.   A beautiful bunch, these Transmitter Hunters.
         

 

 

Réal VE2DSK. When everything fails open the envelop.   I’m approaching the Hunters.   Little Italy.  It is 10 am.  We knew who was going to win.  The Doppler gave headings to go North while the beam indicated East
         

 

 

People showed up early in Little Italy.  Guess they knew something!   To smoke: one must be outside   Azzurri = blue.  Forza Italia = Strength to Italia.  Coincidence France also wears blue jerseys.
         

 

 

If you want to know about the communication vehicule ask Jacques VA2JCK.   Our journey brought us to: Trans-Canada until St. John, towards Gouin.  I swear the Doppler gave us readings. Returned to the starting point.   Ronald VE2ESX, René VA2RDB, Réal VE2DSK.  It was beautiful and warm but quite humid.  Sandwiches were good.
         

 

 

René VA2RDB, in the center is the person who hid the transmitter – Serge VE2HLS and Maurice VA2HLM.   Notice the ¼ wave near the red mark.   No body under here!
