Times are Local AZ time

Location:

Radio:  Grundig G5 ---

Antenna:  Telescoping vertical (bud-i-pole version)

Log:
Time---FX in KHz---Note
2220---2097---"A"  2097.38  very clear copy
2226---3450---"OK"
2234---4012---"MO"
2234---4078---"W"
2238---4079---"TMP"  very very noisy
2241---4089---dasher
2243---4095---
2247---4102---"W"---6 beeps in 11 seconds, then 12 beeps in 9 seconds, then 16 beeps in 9 seconds.  I guess indicating different wind velocity.
2259---4096---Cluster of beacons.  I copied "Kelsie" and "Coxie"

I could not get any copies higher in FX than this due to power line noise.  I knew I ran the risk of this but did not want to drive any further.

thx for the beacons
