HF Beacons / Re: Currently Active Beacons Chat
« on: January 03, 2021, 1815 UTC »Should we pencil in the 4097.2 Dasher (possibly the former Inyo Whooper) and the new 4095.7 Desert Whooper beacons into the master list?
Guesses on my part for both of them as of early January 2021.
4097.2x has been active since at least early November with no real changes noted since then, so it appears to be here to stay. I don't think that is related to the old Inyo Whooper though, it does appear to be related to 7997.2 kHz. The two dashers appear in sync. Both of them have some interesting propagation to me on my local receivers, at times they boom in, but most of the time they are not detectable. Typically when I can hear one I cannot hear the other, but I suspect that is propagation, as occasionally I do hear them both at the same time.
The Desert Whooper also appears to be hanging in there. But since it is still changing a little I suspect we are not seeing it in its final version / location yet.
My vote would be that both need to be on the list.
T!
Hello!
They were both added to the list on Dec. 18th
I just updated both listings. I like your note about 4097.2 and 7997.2 being in sync so I added that in as well as added 7997.2 to the list
Interesting problem though. Look at Windy with it's minimalist telemetry crying out for help but the owner has not driven out there and installed a new battery.
