Great list! Thanks for the updates.

Regarding this statement: "I have noticed over the past three or so years a sharp decline in traffic being worked suggesting that this service and mode will be retired in the near future, so hear them while you can.  JFE on Okinawa has not been heard for around four years which suggests that this station has already been decommissioned."

I watched as low frequency airport and marine NDBs slowly disappeared and all I have left are photos of all of the local beacons I visited.   :-\
