It's not a low-power beacon, but at 21:41 I'm seeing some S-9 code being sent on 8.350.  The dashes are long, and the dits are short and rapid fire.  My code is slow and rusty, but it seems to be largely digits being sent - perhaps a numbers station?

At 2200Utc  the bug sent spy numbers and the beacon rolling into Colorado...
I wonder if the Gov. computers can copy a bug?

I love the sound of a nice bug...and use one often...

Are you getting both the numbers and the beacon at the same time?  Where is the one in relation to the other?  I've been up and down the dial in the neighborhood of 8350, with no beacon joy - just the numbers.

I'm beginning to think that that circuit has it in for me...
