[Milsurplus] FW: Lighthouse radio beacons of the past ?

I know there are still a few LF beacon DXers out there. I wonder, is there an old times list of LF marine beacons that were associated with lighthouses or light ships ? Especially interested in the Pacific Coast lighthouses. "Sentinels of the North Pacific", James Gibbs, 1955, says our own Yaquina Head Lighthouse had a Class B beacon which could be heard a hundred miles at sea. Now, of course, the radio beacon is long gone. The lighthouse is a tourist attraction, but in these plague years, the lighthouses are closed to visitation.
