Hi all, Just curious: How come that people operate Ham beacons in a bandsegment that we have agreed to be used for DX traffic only? What is the purpose? 73 Len SM7BIC " The beacon that you mention (what I assume I'm hearing around 3.500.9 this morning between 1130 to 1200 UTC) is on a lower frequency (approximately 0.9 Khz lower) than what I was previously hearing, it's much weaker than what I had been hearing, and it's heading is much different from my previous measurements. Using my 3 pennants I would say the signal from what I assume is the w4hbk beacon is a little West Of South from my location (my first estimate this morning put it around 190 degrees, and QRZ.com says w4hbk is 186 degrees from my location), and this is much different than my previous measurements that typically were from 128 to 140 degrees and 150 degrees at the most)"
Just FYI, Don (wd8dsb) _________________ Topband Reflector _________________ Topband Reflector
