Rich,

No problems ,

The beacon saga has all ways caused a bit of a spat , or splash as in the mid band one, serious cw takes place round 502 and wspr up at the top end of the band , qrss also tends to be run at the top end to prevent the long tx pulses from blocking other activity's lower down, sometimes the mid band is taken , but once a nice trace has been seen on a remote grabber this usually stops. bit like a budgie and a mirror that sort of thing.

Data linear/multi tone normally runs round 503 and rtty fsk 85/23 hz shift round 502.2 when cw/data mode changes are made, due to the equipment being vfo controlled and fsk keyed, a big qsy is not that easy or needed.

To date , Andy has the only permit to run a beacon full time , as can be observed on 503.7 and at :-
http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/wgtaylor/grabber3.html
Beacons may be run for extended periods , but are subject to the manned / un manned clauses, interference etc

Experimental work, mode comparison that sort of thing tends to run round the middle of the band so as not to interfere with the mode serious normal on going activities towards the band edges.

upset anyone down there!

Thanks Dave. Is Finbar's beacon always transmitting or is there some
sort of schedule?
