Welcome Jim ,

Always glad to see a new face get involved here .

SIW is a part 15 LowFER beacon , located in Oswego , Illinois .

Garry has had a beacon on for 2 or 3 years . He has one of the better 
beacons on the air .

This year he has been running some experiments with different modulation 
methods involving graphics as compared to just the standard QRSS60 or 
some combination of a couple of different methods .

He has a schedule when he switches frequencies between 185.185 kHz. and 
185.2993 .

Beacon information can be found here for 1750 and 2200 meters :

The main web site is  www.lwca.org  . There are links there to a lot of 
information on the operators and the frequency and status of beacons .
