You probably don't want to do Fox/Hound for a special event.  It's really 
designed for DXExpeditions.You're more likely to get people calling you if you 
just stick to the normal bands and procedure since nobody will know you are on 
the air in some other place.

Folks,

 

I have tried tonight to switch to Fox and Hound mode a couple of times after 
getting multiple callers (>10 at a time) to special event station call VI17AC 
(17th Asian Cup Soccer) which I am helping activate for the event.

 

It seems that whenever I try to reply to someone I cease to be able to see them 
in the stations calling window, but are moved to the Tab 3 list (which I 
understand is the queue window – and is expected) then as soon as I call them 
the first time they disappear from the queue, I see me call them in the RX 
Frequency window but they don’t QSY and I cant see them any more. I have never 
had a real opportunity to use Fox and Hound mode before so haven’t been able to 
familiarise myself with it very well but this behaviour with a non standard 
callsign doesn’t appear to follow the manual. Needless to say I ahve to fairly 
quickly give up because I am not completing any QSOs.

 

Is this just people not switching to Fox and Hound mode on the other end or is 
something else going on?

 

Does anyone have any ideas?

 

Regards,

Grant VK5GR
