[Lowfer] TAG Beacon Change?

[Bill de Carle]

Thanks for running that lonely WOLF beacon John.  I feel a little guilty
for not sending in regular reports.  I only try to receive it from time
to time after changing things to make sure everything still works.
WOLF is so good copy is taken for granted here just about any time.
You could use WOLF messages to send info about weather, power failures,
breakins, etc up in Maine to your QTH in Mass.  Bet you'll miss it!
