If the gear holds up, I will leave it on until Thursday or Friday. It's operation means I cannot listen to anything, so by that stage, I will probably pull the plug. I am looking forward to hearing from the group re this beacon. I have increased the output since I first put it on. Now running at 2 amps RF. Thanks again es best regards Finar EI0CF -----Original Message----- From: G0MRF@aol.com To: rsgb_lf_group@blacksheep.org Date: 26 July 1999 00:17 Subject: Re: LF: re:136.150 beacon >In a message dated 25/07/99 11:52:56 GMT Daylight Time, beachwood@tinet.ie >writes: > ><< BEACON ON 136.150 KHZ > I have put on air an LF beacon, running H24, on 136.150 khz.
