I posted a lengthy thread about this in the "Dark Arts" section but felt I should mention it here as well. In operation is a continuous tone beacon transmitting in FM mode but easily heard in AM or SSB. Built from a re-purposed R/C transmitter with a crystal socket for frequency agility. Chosen frequency is currently set at CB channel 23 - 27.255 MHz or 27255 kHz. Seems to depend on the mode you're using for receive. Transmit power is 1 watt into a dipole facing roughly ENE/WSW. Located on the East Coast of the USA. Operating 24/7 unless otherwise specified.
Here is the long post about the beacon in the Dark Arts subforum -->
http://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php?topic=25624.0This beacon is part of an on-going project for 11 meter beacons. Mark I was a 80mW beacon on 27500. It is currently off the air - Mark II has taken its antenna for now. Mark III will feature a CW ID and (hopefully) a bit more power.
Please post here if you hear this beacon!
