Episode 46 - FT8 and Super Fox

This is The DX Mentor podcast. I hope to help those hams trying to

move up the DXCC ladder as well as those that at on the DXCC Honor

Roll. As fast as technology is moving, no one can keep up on it all.

I am here to help. #DX #Hamradio

Our guest today is Ned Stearns, AA7A. Along with Joe, W8GEX, we will be discussing FT8. Ned was one of the early influencers of FT8, even coining the phrase “Fox/Hound”. In addition to answering some questions from our followers about FT8, Ned will delve into the new Super Fox mode and tell us all about it.

Ned is an accomplished DXer, sitting at the top of the Honor Roll and a competitive contester. He is also well travelled being a member of the Voodoo contest club.
