[RTTY] Fwd: IARU BEACONS

[Tom Osborne]

3KC?  What software are they listening to the beacon with?  Since when do 
you need software to listen to a beacon???

I can hear the beacons just fine with my bandwidth set to 250 cycles. on my 
TS-450SAT.  It is a CW signal after all.  73

When I monitor the beacons with FAROS, my bandwidth is set to 400 Hz
and everything works FB. I think a +/- 1.5 KHz window is a waste of
bandwidth, especially on a contesting weekend.
