The new - on air since about 29 April 2014: "RR-dash" beacon on 13562.90 kHz is located in the northern Mojave Desert of Calif. with approx. 10 mW to an inverted-L antenna cut actually for 3.9 MHz. A series LC tuner matches the beacon xmtr. to the RG-8 antenna feedline, -- the xmtr is employing a CB-14 (~27.125 MHz) (3rd overtone xtal) into divide-by-two (74HC4024) IC to 2N3904 final.
It runs 24/7 with outages for Dxing...
Kindest thanks for your reports here at HFU!
