[NLRS] Beacons

[Dr. Gerald N. Johnson]

There are allegedly some beacons in the Des Moines area. I've never 
found them at 40 miles distance so I wouldn't bother listing them. They 
are listed in the ARRL repeater directory.

KM0T has had beacons on 10G and maybe 24G in NW Iowa. So says his web 
page. I've not looked for or heard them.

I wish for a 10G beacon long about Albert Lea or Mason City so I could 
check out proposed rover sites by RF and visual. It would also be handy 
for twin cities stations checking out propagation and receiving performance.
