I am using it with my K3 right now: http://www.g4ilo.com/beacons.html to do exactly what you are suggesting. You don't have to upload the results to a web page, of course. - Julian, G4ILO.

Re: [Elecraft] Automatic beacon scanner program for K3?
Hi Doug, Very interesting theme in times of DX-Clusters :-) BeaconSee will do the job. It jumps from Frequency to frequency following the beacon transmit time table, writing a small piece of waterfall diagram to you computer screen for any beacon. So you can get a very nice information how conditions have changed over the day incl. an idea how about MUF.

[Elecraft] Automatic beacon scanner program for K3?
Hi all, Is there an automatic beacon scanner for the K3? We're not on the air all the time, and it would be useful if we could get a profile of openings to this location (VK9NN now) by having a computer driving a K3 to scan the beacons when otherwise this gear is sitting unused. For future trips, I'm also thinking that something like that for the SDR-IQ, too. 73, doug __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
