Mike,

> What is a good frequency to select for a Hifer beacon for me???

TLTX is presently on 13559.83.

Notes from last year:
PBJ 13557.8
RY 13555.36
LEK 13555.40
MP 13555.49
NC 13555.5
AWV 13556.48
JJ 13557.5
YK 13557.94
WA 13562.18

Note that some of those frequencies were very stable, and some wandered a
bit. The cluster of LEK, MP, NC and RY could be seen on one Spectran screen
set properly. The width of an Argo 3 sec/dot screen is 100 Hz. Most of the
operation was CW or QRSS3. I'd guess that QRSS10 is about as slow as anyone
would want to go, given the duration of propagation peaks.
