Re: [IRCA] Beacon ZLS
Airnav.com shows ZLS is actually on 526 kHz and is located on Long Island, Bahamas. Power is listed as 500 watts. Even though it is in the Bahamas it is owned by the USCG.

It's been heard a few times out here on the west coast of Canada, Karl. I believe I recorded a few seconds of it the last time it was heard. best wishes, Nick ___ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: irca@hard-core-dx.com
Re: [IRCA] Beacon ZLS (heard all over NA)
Hi Karl, ZLS is a powerhouse, easily heard all across North America, at least to the west coast. There's always 520 BHZ from Belo Horizonte, Brazil to try for!

Re: [IRCA] Beacon ZLS
I hear it here in Memphis quite regularly, and suspect it is pretty much heard quite widely across the hemisphere. I agree - quite fun to hear, and more entertaining than Reloj at times!
