hunting:
There's a wide variety of gear that can be used for hunting, included dedicated direction finders,
directional antennas, signal attenuators, and phased array systems. What you use is your choice, but
at the end of the day, greater skill will always beat the noob that just bought the expensive toy.
Back when I played paintball, when I showed up on the field I would take a look at the competition.
I'd see loads of people with expensive markers, sparkling new name-brand accessories, etc. I wasn't
worried about them. It was the guy just minding his own business with the beat up old marker and
dressed in jeans and his favorite old t-shirt. THAT was the one that was going to be a problem.
And pretty reliably, the fancy-pants with thousands in equipment would be sent off the field long before
that random older guy with the trashy looking hardware. Fox-hunts are no different - if you have the
skills, you don't need anything more than the basic tools to do well. In any truly skill-based game,
you can pay to play, but you can't pay to WIN.
Knowing how to use your equipment and being familiar with how it behaves are the biggest keys to
being a successful transmitter hunter. And you can only get this from practice.
