Amateur Radio Direction Finding (ARDF) is the sport 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 radio direction finding skills using hand-held portable receivers
and antennas. It is great fun for young and old alike - an opportunity
for personal challenge in the great outdoors!

IARU Region II ARDF Championships will be held 5-7 June 2009 (in
conjunction with the USA ARDF Championships) at the Blue Hills Reservation
in Milton, Massachusetts, close to the city of Boston.
