[50mhz] [Rmvhf] Fw: 6m beacon

[Phil Krichbaum]

Dale,
    I noted the frequency and will monitor it. I'm in DM69em near Rifle 
CO and have a 7/7 and PROIII but unfortunately I've got a S2-3 power 
line noise in that direction. I need to remind them again that it is 
still there! They fixed it once and it has come back. I'm listening on 
50.073 in the USB position and just heard a loud  "N" on apparent meteor 
scatter.
    Down this way take a listen for the K0EC/B on 50.067 DM69 in the SSB 
position. It is on Vail Mtn at 11,250 ft and runs 45w to a combination 
of vertical and horizontal antennas.  I can also hear the other Colorado 
beacons on 50.064 in DM79 and DM59. The bearing from here to your beacon 
is 326 degrees and distance of 168 miles. I'd imagine without my noise 
I'd hear it fairly often as I've got a great horizon to you but 12 to 18 
Db of noise is pretty nasty.
