At around 04:00Z I stumbled on a beacon I don't see referenced here.
It ID's as HK3QQ, in Bogotà Colombia. OM's a ham, his QRZ page lists the beacon at 7.070, but its on 7.092.
The beacon sends a long string of apparently random letters with a lot of space, followed by "vvv de HK3QQ Bogotà Colombia locator fj24xr 5W 73".
I have it at 339 here in upstate New York, but it takes some bad fades.
Rig here is an ic-7100 and a homebrew EFHW.

It's not referenced here as it's a legit ham beacon,
We focus on unlicensed ops, unless that's changed?
73's

Yup, pays to read the description carefully... Lesson learned...

...still an interesting find. I'll listen for it this evening.
