<p><font size="+2"><font face="Arial">Not the best time of the day
to evaluate VHF beacons but here is what your two beacons
sound like from my QTH in EN70JT, 20 miles south of Ft. Wayne
IN. I did not optimize yagi pointing between the two but
nonetheless I found both peaking 15-20 dB above my NF during
QSB up-swings. Enclosed is a small WAV file. Not sure if this
post will make it to the group. 73</font></font><br>

Light travels faster than sound....
This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.</pre>

your beacon, and I want to thank you for the update. I
had your beacon on my beacon list here, but had it
located in EN83. Did you move it? Or was my original
list wrong? I can't hear it yet, but I've been
listening.</div>

as well on 144.280 from EN72ct. My beacon is on my
bench right now for some upgrades, but it will be back
up soon. It's about 900 feet above sea level. I also
have other beacons on 222.058, and 1296.301</div>
