<p>Hi Brandon,</p>
<p>I don't know much about it. He told me the call sign of the British guy who programs the chip for him but I didn't note it as he was going to see about getting it changed. I will take it down as time permits and see what's inside.</p>
<p>I'll get back to you when I do. I believe it's less than 1 watt and we aimed it at Tony near Cleveland.</p>

<div>Stan, do you know what chip is being used? I could possibly change the callsign for you. Or maybe I could build another ID keyer circuit. How many watts is that beacon? de N8PUM Brandon <br>

<p>Lloyd's 10 Ghz beacon is still in operation here in EN74ic, we never got the IDer to change to W8MIL, I believe he said a Brit could supply a modified ID chip.</p>

<div>Having known Lloyd for over 40 years; knowing his passion for VHF/UHF and especially microwave equipment and activity; considering his dedication to activating many grids on many bands through Rovering both during and outside of contests and having benefited
from his willingness to share that knowledge, I can’t think of a better way to pay tribute to him and his legacy. Lloyd was a smart, talented, humble man who would probably decline such a suggestion. But having a Club call sign that represented something
other than just a randomly issued extra class vanity call sign is an honor fitting NE8I’s contributions to VHF/UHF. I support and second the nomination of NE8I to become the new MIVUS Club call and the issuing of NE8I/b for any club sponsored or supported
beacons located around the Sate of Michigan. With regard to NE8I/b or NE8I/p operations QSL cards, there needs to be some thought and discussion hi hi.</div>
