The LRS annual D/F Hunt was held on Wednesday 25th May 2016, organized by Peter Dick GM4DTH using the callsign GM3HAM/P transmitting on 1.875 MHz. There were only two receiving stations – Melvyn Bond GM4HYR and Mike Brunsdon GM8KCS (assisted by son Mike Brunsdon Jr MM3MDB and Alan Masson GM3PSP). The fox station was located close to the Union Canal near the Slateford  aqueduct and was first found by Melvyn GM4HYR in 1h 4m  followed by Mike GM8KCS and his team in 2h 1m. After the event the participants adjourned to the nearby Blue Goose hostelry for diet lemonades.
