« on: August 18, 2023, 1340 UTC »
At 1152 utc on 4094 khz H2O id'd three times followed by TEMP 50 50 50
The 4069 beacon was barely copied and the DW beacon was Q5.
H2O was a lot stronger then the 4069 beacon but weaker then DW beacon.

It's helpful to other beacon chasers if members post how they received a beacon. Examples are "at home in Oklahoma with a Drake R4 and a telex log periodic" or "used sam's Kiwi SDR at this URL"
