Since Andy started running the = G3PLX =20 beacon on  503.7 Khz , Gary G4WGT has maintained a monitor
running the G3PLX beacon reporting&nb= sp;=20 software  , whi= ch can be viewed=20 on line  in real time at : 
 
 
 
There  are  3  time di= vision=20 channels  available  in the  beacon system .. Andy is&n= bsp;=20 transmitting in the first  time slot and
recording on the  'RED' trace
 
BLUE and GREEN  are  recordi= ng=20 , and are  available for  use  , details are poste= d=20 :-
 
 
To use the blue or green time slots= , Andy has=20 made  available a control programme that  runs in=20 windows 
and  keys the  tx via the&n= bsp; com=20 port  at 15 minuet intervals , that co inside with the monitoring=  =20 window  of the
software  :-
 
 
All that is needed is a CW tx that ca= n be =20 tuned to  503.7 , A com port  tx ppt  key as used by mo= st=20
software to key the tx , but in this= case connected=20 across  the  CW key line , the  pc time needs to = be set=20
as close to  'real' as possible= , the  rx=20 software will follow a slight time   error
 
Note  , the  recoding = and  tx=20 control software  make up a  beacon system .. so if you are= =20 crystal
controlled and want to  set up a&= nbsp;=20 experiment with other  stations , the RX stations  simp= ly=20 tune
to  your= ''TX' =20 frequency and they will record the  path on a rolling plot=20
