Hello OMs and YLs
>Nice...set up your own NDB.
...
back in 2006, while while operating DI2BO on 440 kHz I got a reception report
from a flying aircraft. An aircraft mechanic on board a Boeing
737 passenger plane flying from Hannover to Crete used DI2BO to check the
function of the plane's ADF (=Automated Direction Finder) unit that
receives between 150 and 1600 kHz. The aircraft was flying at an altitide of
23.000 ft and was about 40 miles south of my location during this test.

Nice...set up your own NDB.
I
spotted a pair of 5B255 high-level modulator bottles in there as well. It
looks like it's a ship-borne aircraft beacon, with nifty covers to stop the
sailors twiddling the controls. Would probably run in excess of 100W
output.
