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 today via e-mail.

"I was running 1W to a 43' vertical on a frequency of 3500.81.  One Watt is
considered the "legal limit" in QRSS work and is generally used on the
lower bands for trans-oceanic tests.  The past two nights were my first
tests this Fall and I was definitely not on last week."

73,
Don (wd8dsb)
