I hope you realize that 1000 microwatts (1 mW or 0 dBm) is very QRO in the
world of weak signal beacons.  Try 27 microwatts at a distance of 546.8
miles on 80 meters.  ;-)

When lightning season is over (next fall), I'll hook up my XG3 to my 3-stack
on 10 meters (22 dBi gain) and see if you can hear me in W6 land.
