already in use by automobile tire pressure monitors on existing vehicles
and maybe even garage door openers...
Almost Part 95 type stuff if no...

Looks to me as though every other day GMT it is on Mode A...ala February
18,20,22 etc...
It doesn't get simpler than that, but it can get harder when the old
bird moves in and out of eclipse...a lesson for another day ;-)

Check Bob Bruninga's (wb4apr) treatise on 19" verticals for use on 440

Google his call and 19" ground plane or look in the archives here...
