21. A Foxhunting Jamboree A foxhunting Jamboree. By Joe Moell KØOV. What an opportunity! Greg Owens WA6HKMand Gabriella Owens KE6JQS asked for foxhunting at JOTA96 in Ventura, CA. http://members.aol.com/joek0ov/jota.html

A Foxhunting Jamboree Reprinted from Homing In column in 73 Magazine, January 1997 When did you first hear about radio direction finding (RDF)? Since it has become a tool for finding downed aircraft and stolen cars, today's school kids probably get a vague notion of it early on. Sadly, they aren't told that it can also be great fun for them. A recent e-mail exchange with Tom Stewart K3TS brought back memories of my introduction to RDF. Tom wrote a classic article about two-meter hidden transmitter hunting in New Jersey for the September 1957 issue of QST. I was 10 years old at the time and studying for my ham ticket, faithfully trying to copy W1AW code practice every night on my drifty Hallicrafters S-38D receiver. That QST issue was one of my first ham radio magazines. Tom's tales of T-hunt trickery got me eager to try the sport. When my Novice license arrived the following spring, I agitated at the radio club in our town of 11,000 souls to get the group to hold some hidden transmitter hunts. Even though Novices had two-meter phone privileges at the time, we were a hundred miles from the nearest two-meter activity and there were no repeaters to bridge the gap. Finally, the club scheduled a hunt on 75 meter AM, where most mobile operating was done in those days. I somehow managed to lash together a two-tube 75-meter converter with vibrator power supply and connect it to the broadcast receiver in the family's gas-guzzler convertible. Of course I had to talk Dad into driving. Bemused by the whole thing, he agreed.

Help EDITIONS Change to World Wednesday, 17 January, 2001, 20:26 GMT Head to head: Foxhunting As MPs prepare to vote whether or not to ban hunting, BBC News Online spoke to Tony Banks MP, a fierce opponent of hunting and to Richard Burge, chief executive of the Countryside Alliance, who is in favour of the pursuit. Here they put forward their arguments for and against hunting with hounds. Against Foxhunting - Tony Banks MP It's a straightforward issue as far as I'm concerned. It's a matter of stopping cruelty to animals. The hunting of foxes, mink, hare-coursing, and deer-hunting involves cruelty to animals - these are not recognised as sports, they're to do with blood-lust, and they're to do with cruelty and they should be banned. I've consistently supported a ban, and I'm pleased to say that a great majority of members of parliament also support a ban and so do the majority of people of the country, both in rural and urban areas. Confident of a ban: Tony Banks MP We keep hearing about the rights of the minority but what about the rights of the majority?

The placing was priced at 500p a share and was two times oversubscribed. The shares had fallen 48½p to 494p when the placing was announced last week but rose 26p to 531p yesterday. The heavy demand for the shares comes in marked contrast to recent flotations. Michael Page, the recruitment consultant, was floated at 175p, well below the 190p to 250p range set by Credit Suisse. The flotation of Orange, the mobile telephone group, also experienced problems, although Vodafone successfully placed £3.5 billion worth of shares yesterday.

33. Countryside Alliance Press Release: Opposition To Foxhunting Falls As Anti-hunt 43% do not think foxhunting should be made a criminal offence, 47% support the proposal and 10% 'don't Category Regional Europe UK Hunting Bill 2001 Polls......Countryside Alliance press release Opposition to foxhunting falls asantihunt campaign degenerates into farce. Opposition to foxhunting http://www.countryside-alliance.org/news/98/980312poll.htm

Opposition to foxhunting falls as anti-hunt campaign degenerates into farce 12 March, 1998 A new public opinion poll, conducted in the week following the Countryside March, shows there is no majority for making fox hunting a criminal offence. The poll, conducted by Research Studies of Great Britain between March 4 – 8, asked 'Do you think fox hunting should be made a criminal offence or not?' 43% of all respondents did not think foxhunting should be made a criminal offence, with 47% supporting the proposal and 10% responding 'don't know'. Significantly, when the results were analysed by region, the percentage opposing making foxhunters criminals was slightly higher in London, while in rural areas, fox hunting won support by a clear majority with 48% opposing the activity being made a criminal offence and only 39% supporting. Chief press officer of the Countryside Alliance, Janet George, said: "It is one thing to dislike foxhunting. It is a completely different thing to criminalise decent, law-abiding people – as seen in London on March 1 – for supporting a well-regulated activity that not only helps to manage the fox population and supports 15,900 jobs, but also provides enjoyment for several hundred thousand people. As Mr. Foster's Bill returns to the Commons on Friday, for its second day of Report, this poll indicates clearly that MPs have no mandate to ban hunting." The Government has made it clear that it has no interest in banning hunting, but the Worcester MP, Michael Foster, will attempt to rescue his chances tomorrow by moving an amendment to the Wild Mammals (Protection) Act 1996, which inserts a new offence of 'hunting a wild mammal with a dog'. His own bill was described as 'defective' by the Home Office Minister George Howarth during its Committee stage and has been substantially re-written.

Weekend SPECIAL REPORTS Working Parents Investor's Centre NI_AD('BottomLeft'); Politics November 04, 2002 Blair takes soft option on Section 28 and hunting By Philip Webster, Political Editor TONY BLAIR is to steer away from an immediate clash over foxhunting and the Section 28 law on homosexuality when he unveils the Government’s new programme next week. The issues are two of the most controversial facing ministers. But the repeal of Section 28 has been kept out of John Prescott’s Local Government Bill which will be one of the centrepieces of the Queen’s Speech on Wednesday week. Instead ministers will make plain on the day that backbenchers will be invited to table an amendment to the Bill as it goes through Parliament. It means that repeal will be threatened for a second time by blocking tactics in the Lords. Mr Blair will also, as previously promised, herald a Bill on foxhunting. But he will avoid stating the Government’s favoured solution for dealing with a ban. A report drawn up by Alun Michael, the Rural Affairs Minister, has been delayed until after the Queen’s Speech. It is widely expected to propose a ban on foxhunting in all but limited areas. But the government whips accept that anything less than a total ban is unacceptable to Labour MPs. The Bill will be based on Mr Michael’s report but is expected to be amended as it goes through.

38. Countryside Alliance: This Is Foxhunting Fox hunting This page describes in detail the role of foxhunting in managingthe fox population and the British countryside. Come foxhunting. http://www.countryside-alliance.org/edu/edu2-3-5fox.htm

Foxhunting Foxhunting is the pursuit of the wild fox with a pack of hounds. Man has been controlling foxes since he started to farm animals, but the hunting of foxes with hounds for sport became popular over two hundred years ago. The fox is a pest and its population needs to be controlled. Individuals and organisations concerned with farming and the management of the countryside recognise this fact. Responsible fox management includes maintaining a healthy population at a level at which it can thrive without threatening livestock or other wildlife. Foxhunting is the most natural method of management: by its nature, it takes out the old, sick and injured foxes, and there is no risk of wounding. If the fox is caught, it is killed within seconds. If the fox goes to ground, it will either be left unharmed or the landowner may ask that it be killed by the hunt's terrierman. The strict rules governing terrier work laid down by the Masters of Foxhounds Association (MFHA) ensure there is no unnecessary suffering. Foxhunting does not just help control fox numbers. Landowners with an interest in foxhunting plant and maintain coverts, woodlands and copses for the benefit of all wildlife. Few farmers want to see the fox exterminated, but those who support hunting are more inclined to tolerate foxes on their land, as long as their numbers are controlled.

40. Foxhunting 01/19/03. http://www.foxhunter.com/trianglehunt/Foxhunting.htm

The Triangle Hunt is a traditional, formal live foxhunt. The Hunt has registered with the M.F.H.A. a large area of land in Wake, Wayne, Johnston, Wilson, Edgecombe, Greene and Nash counties of North Carolina. Cub hunting begins toward the end of September or beginning of October, depending upon the time the crops are harvested. It is only through the generosity of the landowners and farmers that The Triangle Hunt can continue to hunt. The Opening Meet, which signifies the start of the fox hunting season, takes place the first weekend in November. From this time until April 1st, hounds go out two or three days each week. A fixture card is sent out giving the time, date and location of future meets. The Triangle Hunt typically hunts Saturday mornings and Wednesday afternoons during season.
