It’s been a long time since I have heard a Single Letter Beacon (SLB).  It used to be they were everywhere.  Now it seems like they are mostly being heard by folks overseas.  But then again, I haven’t been searching them out...

For my locale the 7 MHz beacons are the most consistent Just heard these two a few minutes ago

7039.00 KHz  Russian beacon "F". Fair signal.
7039.400 KHz  Russian beacon "M". Weak but readable
