The purpose of this hidden transmitter and the supporting web page is to invite people to join into to wonderful world of transmitter hunting. This sport has been in existence for several decades and is a lot of fun.

The "usual" hunts are most every Saturday and are competitive and although many attempts have been made, are not too inviting to the beginner. This GeoHunt allows you to try some techniques and tricks without being in a competition.  Also the transmitter is not hidden to trick or fool you too much and has vertical polarization and consistent performance. It is low power and has a low duty cycle so that alone will make the hunting challenging.

The transmitter is a "SQUAWKBOX" running 50 milliwatts into a ribbon cable J-Pole. It is powered by rechargeable batteries and will soon be solar powered.
