  -15/05/2021 QO-100 Fox Hunting Activity from 15 to 16 May 2021
Like our previous QO-100 KGSTV activity we wanted to hunt the foxes on our geostationary satellite transponder QO-100.
This time we will be at home, monitoring the QO-100 downlink frequencies.
Here is the story and procedure to be part of this activity:
Random SSB voice transmissions will be conducted on QO-100 SSB transponder portion
Transmission times will be randomized withing the given activity hours
Transmission frequencies will be random within a few frequency range
You will try to capture and record the transmissions as good and long as possible (hunt the fox)
This transmission will include a chiled’s voice recording with his/her message to space and a secret letter for this challenge
Sending these recordings and the secret word (refer to rules) to us will reward you with an award for the activity.
Activity Date & Time
15 May 2021 15:00 UTC to 17:00 UTC
16 May 2021 15:00 UTC to 17:00 UTC
The following frequency ranges will be used (randomly):
10489.670 – 10489.680 MHz
10489.700 – 10489.710 MHz
10489.770 – 10489.780 MHz
10489.810 – 10489.820 MHz
