[Lowfer] BOB beacon

[Peter Barick]

I copied BOB once a few years ago at sun up. It was CW, about 10WPM.
The distance is about 120 miles south of me. I was using a vertical T. Not sure his hook-up then.
It's been QRTfor a few years until this notice.

Never copied BA which was farther south of BOB. Lyle in MN had regular New Year exchanges on CW w/ BA.

Zack, do you know the current particulars on the ant. for BOB?

Another one that used to show up here evenings only was RB on 185. He switched to 136 for a brief while 2 years back and then QRT.

I believe it sends "BOB" in CW. I haven't heard it yet. He's running about 
a watt but I'm not sure of his antenna system.
