New QRSS beacon on the air
I have finished building the 30m QRSS Beacon and it is on the air.
It is sending the callsign W9IUF. It is running 70mW which is the

air at 10.140015 - 10.140020. I may move it up in frequency though because

Re: Hans' 30M beacon kit - some construction notes
Cool!
Thanks Jay, this is first time I've seen it. And it looks right-side-up,
too. For some reason I thought it was coming out inverted.

7.000,000 - 7.000,100
10.140,000 - 10.140,100
Most of the activity is on 30 meters and you can generally rely on a

The usual procedure is to take a screenshot of the signal and either to post it here or on the knightlights reflector. That way we all get to share what you have received. The owner of the
