That beacon was POUNDING into Houston TX Saturday morning!!!
at times it was S9 in the MOBILE!! (TS680 and 1/4wave vert)...
Heard ot for over 2 hrs but noone on 50.110 or 50.125 (I called CQ
many times)...I think the bcn is running CW but also has a separate
carrier up...it is NOT FSK the way I hear it...(that or the second 
carrier is a mistake! :) I was driving to Dallas Saturday and
copied it for a good while up I45...but switched to 40 for a sked
and the band was heading down by that time...DRAT!! Missed all
the good stuff again :(

(did this list get moved and noone got told?? I tried to reply to
the original list and it BOUNCED!! SOOO off it goes to mailman
address :)
