Per the information at http://www.ncdxf.org/beacon/beaconinterference.html
the beacon folks are asking for a clear frequency from 14099.5 to 14100.5.
They do recognize that someone trying to monitor the beacon with a SSB
receiver with a 2.8 kHz bandwidth is still going to have a problem and
recommend using the CW mode with a 500 Hz filter. Duh!
Let's try another suggestion. If you are trying to copy the beacons on a
weekend and can't hear the CW signals due to the interference from
contesting stations all over the world, THE BAND IS OPEN!
73,
