Thanks for the information Curt . The Epson oscillator that I have in one of
my beacons is 13.559 and I also have the
K-ID2 for QRSS3 and 10 WPM . I am using a 5 element filter on it .
I have a crystal controlled one here too , that I don't remember the
frequency of right off hand , but it was a standard computer crystal
frequency that I designed , basically just an oscillator and a filter to
stay within the rules . Was going to see which was the easiest to live with
.
I have 30 acres about 20 miles from me , and have considered solar powering
all 3 of my beacons at that location , that is virtually in the middle of
nowhere .They will be in Kansas , about a mile north of the Oklahoma state
line .
Lots of farm land all around it . Just probably 6 or 7 miles from John D.'s
farm .
That would let me do more listening from this location , but might be
difficult to service in the winter or heavy rains .
