Phase Controlled Receiving Array for QRP Low Band Fox Hunting

This resource presents a phase-controlled receiving array designed specifically for QRP (low power) fox hunting on the 40M and 80M bands. The author shares personal experiences and challenges faced during fox hunts, including the impact of regional noise levels and propagation conditions. The document details modifications made to enhance receiving capabilities, such as adding a director wire to a vertical antenna, which improved effective radiated power (ERP) in specific directions. The resource is aimed at amateur radio operators participating in QRP fox hunting, providing insights into noise reduction techniques and antenna performance in varying conditions. It also references the QRP Fox Hunt series, which operates weekly during winter months, emphasizing the importance of understanding local propagation characteristics.
