Hi all:

I am running the station in CW Beacon mode thru the day .. I would like to get an idea of my groundwave coverage,
so any stations within 200 miles of Knoxville, TN. that would see if they can hear me, I would appreciate your report..
Barring equipment issues; I will let it run until close to sunset here..

Carrier is close to 476.500 KHz ( +/- a few cycles ) .. Speed is 7 wpm .. 2 minute cycles, TX-54 sec. RX-63 sec.
TPO is 20 watts into a 30' AGL monopole with 960' top loading ( calculated EIRP is 2.7 watts )
My grid square is EM75xr - Friendsville, TN. - - -  Beacon is running now ..

Thanks for your receiver time, and 73:

Andy - KU4XR
