[Lowfer] I need some listener reports

Andy,

HMY is on 512 kHz in Lexington, OK. A better database for aero beacons 
is: http://www.classaxe.com/dx/ndb/rna/ .

I'm wondering whether you have thought the MCW route through. Assuming 
100% modulation and a 100 mw carrier, there will only be 25 mw in each 
sideband. Since your "DX" listeners would likely have their receivers 
set for CW, and would be copying one sideband, you would be paying a 6 
dB penalty over simply keying the 100 mw carrier. Just a thought.
