Here is a shot of the beacons currently seen (daytime) around the 4096 area from my QTH.

Are the 6 MHz desert beacons still on the air?

Rocky (6626.2 high speed dasher) I think I get every once in a while, have never really gotten it strong and I can not see it right this minute.  Hexie 2 (6700.4 dasher) I get regularly, right now I have it at 6700.51 and S4 or so.  The Rainy ditter at 6626.4 I have never gotten.

Hi Token,

What program is that? Looks like it uses GTK on Linux.

Peace!

The program used is SpectraVue, the new Beta 3.0 version, in this case build 23.  I trimmed off all of the settings that are normally along the bottom 25% of a screen.

The span was 25 kHz (as can be seen across the top).

I can't say that anymore, just got Rainy fairly strong.  Around 6626.55, but quite an interpulse drift on that signal.
