The Russian 40-meter single-letter beacons have been quite
active lately. You're bound to run across some of these useful
beacons/markers during this weekend's contest:
Letter Sent Location(?) Frequency Heard at (in W0-land)
C Moscow UA3 7039.1 0700z
F Vladivostok UA0 7038.4 1100z
P Kaliningrad UA2 7038.8 0700z
S Archangel UA1 7039.0 0800z
V Tashkent UI8 7002.0 0300(sp),1100(lp)
Locations are mostly from SWL sources that seem reliable.
I would appreciate your reception reports, especially in regard to
the time you first hear them. All seem to operate only during their
local daytime. These beacons have been reported on other frequencies
including (harmonics?) within the 20-meter band.
