I braved the 100 degree temp today and got my beacon up on the air at about 2230utc(630pm cdt). Freq is about 10.140070 with some instability due to high temp.
Beacon is mounted in plastic box at center of dipole. Tx power into a resistive dummy load was 80mw(2volts peak to peak). 5volts dc power is run up to tx through rg59 cable tv coax.
Reports welcome.
