[KYHAM] RE: [BARS] Morse on AM broadcast band

[Tim Anderson - AG4XM]

I should also mention that these stations are called NDBs (Non-Directional
Radio Beacons).  Older technology, theses stations are used by aviators for
navigation and non-precision approaches.  With the advent of GPS, the old
reliable HF NDB/ADF is still in wide use and will continue to be for years
to come.

Greetings,

I hope everyone is well.

I have a friend that called me this morning and played 530 AM and it
was sending "FEO" repeatedly.  He is in Lexington and said that he had
his antenna pointed toward Frankfort.

Does anyone know why this what this means?

Thanks and 73s,
