Bob, NK9M and I activated lowfer SIW this afternoon from his QTH in
EN51uq. Signalling format is "SIW" at QRSS60, "SIW" at QRSS30, then
repeat. The frequency changes daily at 1800Z. S,T,Th,Sa run at 185.2993
kHz; M,W,F run at 185.185 kHz. Since today is Monday the beacon is
currently on 185.185 kHz. The frequency shift allows me to monitor the
watering hole without being overwhelmed by the ground wave signal from
20+ miles.
