                      THE GREAT DOUBLE HUNT


INTENT:
    The intent of this hunt is to show that a clever concept can provide an
entertaining hunt without ever leaving the Los Angeles basin. The hide is
simple.
 One transmitter is located in a secluded beach below the cliffs at point
dume. The low power transmitter operates into a 13 element beam pointed
at PV and would give a bearing from the starting point out through the Santa Ynez
mountains and up to San Luis Obispo and on up the coast. The transmitter
cannot be heard from Highway 1 as you go by due to the cliffs, the beam and the
low power.
A second transmitter located on the beach at Palos Verdes, hidden from
the start point by cliffs and with a 16 element beam pointed at Point
Dume. It will eventually bring the hunters back from SLO. The region around the Point
Dume transmitter is saturated by the PV transmitter and the region around the PV
transmitter is saturated by the Point dume transmitter. The region between the
transmitters where they would be of equal strength and compete is over
water in Santa Monica Bay. Both antenna point out across water at the other one
with only a few feet of beach accessible. Both transmitters are operated remotely
such that the transmit exactly the same information on exactly the same
frequency.
The 220 MHz remote control is located in Malibu in a RV Park, complete
with hot food and swimming pool.
