Hi,
I wonder what the rationale behind this is:
"Hounds acknowledge having been called and send their “R+rpt” message
at a randomly selected frequency between 300 and 900 Hz."
If I was heard by the Fox on a certain freq., would it not be best to
continue the QSO on the same freq?
Keep up the good work.

Hi Per-Tore,
I believe the thinking is that DXpedition mode is to be used with very
popular operations where there may be many callers, being heard on one
over does not guarantee being heard on the next in those circumstances.
OTOH moving to a portion of the band that is free from other callers to
complete the QSO should maximize rapid completion. Given that the Fox
station may be able to work up to 5 hounds simultaneously a clear
frequency for QSO completion should maximize the QSO rate giving as many
ops the chance to work the rare DX as possible. The fox also has the
option to only work stations weaker than a specified SNR, that should
also help minimize QRM.
