Hi Steve, Yes, tonight at 0230z I rx'd for 3500.85 carrier and it is there at s-5. I did not rx last night for it. The peak is very noticeable, and the null of the back of the beam is equally clear.
They just went away.............? Now what the heck are we going to do for fun, operate the silly radios on the quiet band? K2XT _________________ Topband Reflector
Maybe they caught all the fish they could hold and headed to port to offload their catch! :-) K4OT V They just went away.............? Now what the heck are we going to do for fun, operate the silly
Good evening all, Hate to burst the theories, but it appears the "carrier" on 3501.6 MHz is a QRSS beacon operated by W4HBK. I used Spectrum Lab and selected the 1-second dit in the "Quick Settings"
Hi Rick, The beacon that you mention (what I assume I'm hearing around 3.500.9 this morning between 1130 to 1200 UTC) is on a lower frequency (approximately 0.9 Khz lower) than what I was previously
Hi all, Just curious: How come that people operate Ham beacons in a bandsegment that we have agreed to be used for DX traffic only? What is the purpose? 73 Len SM7BIC " The beacon that you mention (w
Rick and gang, as a follow up I just contacted Bill (w4hbk) via e-mail, and the QRSS beacon that you mentioned above was definitely not the signal we were tracking last week. Bill said the following
It is built around the DDS VFO kit sold by N3ZI and amplifier kit from W8DIZ. Power is 1 W to a 43 foot vertical." If the QRSS station is operated at the FCC-licensed address, that places his QTH on
I was going to make the same comment. I would think that very high in the band, above 3575, would make a LOT more sense. On 11/8/2013 7:22 AM, Lennart Michaelsson wrote: Hi all, Just curious: How com
I would think that very high in the band, above 3575, would make a LOT more sense. No - above 3600. 3570-3600 is packed full of digital/RTTY operations. 73, ... Joe, W4TV On 11/8/2013 7:22 AM, Lennar
What a stupid frequency for a test beacon of any type! Good evening all, Hate to burst the theories, but it appears the "carrier" on 3501.6 MHz is a QRSS beacon operated by W4HBK. I used Spectrum Lab
You think the frequency selection is stupid? Take a look at their objective. --Super Slow CW. 10 hours for a QSO. A QLF contest has more Pizazz and makes more sense. Bill--W4BSG What a stupid frequen

Alright everyone!!!! Let's not use words like stupid here - and certainly not suggest using guns. This is the gentleman's "band". Education is the way to fix this - not calling names. Tree __________
For what it's worth, considering the fine DF work done, I don't think the QRSS station was the offender. It seems like it was probably in Georgia, south of Savannah. Just guessing. Bill--W4BSG ______
Rick, Thanks for the detective work! What is the recommended frequency on 80 meters for beacon operation? I could not find it on any bandplan. http://www.hamuniverse.com/arrlbandplan.html You think t
