News Item: New PI7SIX Beacon
(Category: Beacon News)
Posted by Admin



I build a new beacon during the winter time, it's been installed a week ago in city of Rotterdam (jo21fv). The PI7SIX beacon is on 50.425 MHz and running 50 watt e.r.p (80 watt output) into a crossdipole at 105 M high. The mode is F1A (FSK 800 Hz). The chosen frequency is in the "new" beaconband according the IARU, but I see on the spots that many people don't look that high. On the same site there are also many MW beacons from 13 cm till 1.5 cm. All other information you can find on QRZ.com or beaconspot.
