Nigel,

I hope you get sorted out and on the air soon, we need another GM
station to fill the void!

The biggest beacon around that frequency (there are a few others) is
DI2AM on  505.180. This is received here in Shetland 24/7,
although audibility dips during the day, it's always visible on my
grabber.

It sends a normal speed CW ident follwed by its callsign in QRSS3,
repeating every 5 minutes. Check http://www.gm4slv.org.uk/grabber2.htm
to see what it looks like on a waterfall screen.

Good luck from the far north,

John
