Here's the text we used to announce the W5YR
Foxtravaganza - Thursday, March 31, 2005!

Okay, our regular season is over, yet the desire for
Peltii is still strong. So, we've decided to host a
'Foxtravaganza' as a final, fun thank-you to all
participants in addition to a fond farewell to someone who
excelled as a Hound, a ham, and a human being - George
Baker, W5YR, SK. He will be sorely missed, but will
live on in each of us, and we'll help remember him by
having Fox Hunting Fun - George'd like that.

As many Foxii as are available will be active for
this one event. All Foxii will operate generally as in
a typical Hunt, BUT!  The Foxii may QSY at will,
anywhere from 7.030 to 7.060 MHz.(That was:  7.060  
MHz.) The Foxii may work simplex or split, and can
change from one to the other as conditions, or their
whim, dictates. 

<p>

AND! 

You can get two Peltii from each Fox!!! That's
right, there will be Hunt 1, from 0200-0259Z, then
Hunt 2, from 0300-0359Z. Results won't be posted on
the website, but all the Foxii will post their logs
afterwards, and they'll be separated into these two
groups.


Soapbox comments will be posted on the website. It
looks as though there will be a lot of Fox
participation, so dealing with crowded conditions
might create a whole new kind of fun! (one way to look
at it, eh?)

As the event nears, a list of all Foxii will be
posted here, and on the lists.
