New Year beacon: 4114.5 kHz
« on: December 31, 2021, 2323 UTC »
Greetings and Happy New Year to all -

Using the KPH SDR I have been hearing a new (for me at least) dasher beacon  on 4114.5 kHz. It's sending a ~1.3 second dash every ~2 seconds.
It has been coming in nicely at S2-3 all day -- but has started to fade a bit (at 2300Z). I'm curious to see if it'll be just a 'transient' or a permanent fixture in the 4MHz constellation of beacons.

The 4114.5 slow dasher is still hanging in there. At 2000Z I'm copying it on both the KFS and KPH SDRs, S2-S4. It seems to fade out later in the afternoon (0000Z). Anyone know more about this beacon?
