22 Meter Band HiFER Beacons / YCPA 13567
« on: February 15, 2020, 0356 UTC »
Greetings all,

Just finished putting together a Black Cat Systems 22m beacon.

It is currently turned pretty low on the output power until I can get it on a scope, and grab a field strength meter from the club.

The beacon is currently tuned to 13567 but may fluctuate with temperature, etc, standard crystal stuff.

It is fed into a 1/2 wave dipole roughly 10' up for now, broadsides facing NE-SW. Beacon location is York County, Pennsylvania (hence the call) FM19rx grid ~400' asl)

Happy hunting!

Morning all,

Over on YouTube channel Clemens, there's been a LOT of (since my listening hobby) voice activity on the UVB76 transmitter.

The most recent being "failure" over and over, the letter H in succession and multiple times then 3 sets of 2 digit numbers to finally end with H's in cw and back to buzzing *head scratch*

Has anyone else been watching this? If so, have you noticed any correlation between The Pip and the Squeaky Wheel?

I am currently listening to and recording Squeaky Wheel via UTwente's web-sdr to see if the same transmission (or completely different ones) appear on this Russian station at the same time, different time, same message, all that stuff. Since Clemens focuses on The Buzzer, worth a focus on another, sadly I don't have followers nor a channel like he does to perma-livestream.

If I notice anything I'll be sure to post, just started tonight. Dumping the browser recording to the NAS along with Audacity recording just in case. Plenty of storage for daily review.

73,

K3ZRT, Jeremy
