PicCon Foxhunt Controller
The PicCon can turn any transceiver into a hidden transmitter. It sends tone sequences and Morse code messages at user-programmed times and is configured and remote controlled with DTMF tones. A radio/power cable is required to interface to the radio mic/PTT and ear/speaker jacks, and to a 12V power supply. Radio cables and wiring diagrams can be found

BFoxCon Baofeng Foxhunt Controller
The BFoxCon is a foxhunt controller designed to pair with the inexpensive Baofeng UV-5R to create a hidden transmitter for driving hunts. It mounts to the back of the radio in place of the belt clip and can be powered from the UV-5R battery (BL-5L 3800mAh recommended). It can be configured with the optional USB-2.5 cable, or remote configured and controlled with DTMF tones. A DIY version is available for use with any amateur radio.
It appears some new extended BL-5L batteries come with USB-C charging instead of the 1.7mm coaxial jack near the top of the battery. The battery with the 1.7mm jack is required to power the BFoxCon. Be sure to get the extended battery with this jack, or else provide a different source to power the BFoxCon, such as a 9V battery and cable.
