WE2XGR/3 will be running a beacon in non FEC mode, 31 baud,  from ~ 0000 - 0100Z on 510.5 kHz

At 0100Z both stations will be on 510.5 kHz and carry out a QSO starting out in non FEC mode and 
likely switching to FEC mode along the way.

Currently, only the ZL1BPU/ZL2AFP software can be used to decode this MSK variant. A writeup on the 
new software and link to the files to download can be found at 
http://www.qsl.net/z/zl1bpu//SOFT/msk.htm . Keep in mind that this is just an 'appetitie wetter' 
stripped down test version of a more full featured program to come in the near future. This software 
was designed primarily to effectively deal with conditions on LF so it will be interesting to see 
how it does both on 137 and 500 kHz.

Reports, successful or not, are very much appreciated.
