Hi Mike,
For what it's worth, I made and use a simple field strength meter to monitor the signal of EAR so I
can keep an eye on changes. It's on the bedroom window sill, about 50 feet or so from the helix-
house of the beacon. I check it before I go to bed and again in the morning, when I wake up.
In no way is it calibrated, but it does give me a relative reading of the beacon's health.
