The Caboolture Radio Club is proud to announce the commencement of
operation of a new Beacon Station on the 2200m band.

The Australian Communications and Media Authority has granted permission
for continuous operation of a Beacon on 137.444 kHz



Here are the details



Callsign               VK4RBC

Location              Caboolture, Queensland, Australia

Maidenhead        QG62lw

Frequency           137.444 kHz

Mode                   WSPR2  (6H00F1D) plus CW Ident

Power                 1 Watt EIRP

Antenna               500m Long Wire, 40m max height

TX %                   50 %

Status                 On Air



In the gaps between transmission, the station will report all WSPR decodes
to WSPRnet.org


There are many beacons on 2200m operated by individuals like WH2XND. Our
beacon is a little different. It is an official beacon specifically
licensed as such by the Australian Government. The first to be granted
permission to operate below 28MHz. It has been given the frequency 137.444
only. It can not change frequency. It can not make QSOs.

It operates 24/7 and must be reliable, so that anyone can check their
station at any time. It also receives, which is unusual for a beacon. Last
night it got its first decodes of WH2XND, so its receiver is working well
using that great long wire as the antenna for Tx and Rx. With WH2XND also
reliable, we will now see exactly how good the path from USA to VK really
is on 2200m.
