Amateur Radio Direction Finding (ARDF) or radio
orienteering is a challenging adventure race of finding radio
transmitters on foot, using radio receiver, map,
and compass in diverse, wooded terrain. ARDF joins orienteering
skills like the proper use of topographic maps, compass skills,
and locational awareness, with technical radio direction finding
skills using hand-held portable receivers and antennas. It's a
great mental and physical challenge enjoyed worldwide.
ARDF is great fun for young and old alike - an opportunity for
personal challenge in the great outdoors!
