John, Hartmut, Steve, Scott, and "The Gang",

Upon advisement, VY1JA is now beaconing with 3:1 dot ratio, and 60 second 
dot length.  The time is sychronized daily to NIST and, "JA" is sent every 
half-hour, with a , "VY1JA", 6 WPM morse ID following.  The beacon transmits 
in synchronism every 30 minutes.  Transmissions are still on ~137778.65.

This should make the signal easier to identify and detect and for those with 
software and capability to receive CW which is only synchronized to the 
computer clock on the half-hour and a computer clock synchronized to NIST 
once per day.

If there is anything which I can do beyond these things to make the signal 
easier to detect, I am not aware of it.

Good luck, (and Hartmut, your card is in the mail box in front of the 
general store waiting for pickup tomorrow.)

73,

J.
