[NLRS] New 2m beacon

[tosca005 at umn.edu]

Hello, Arliss!

I am able to weakly copy the beacon in EN34js with my 10-element CushCraft 
antique antenna on a 9 foot rooftop tower on top of my garage, pointing 
through the talller trees. It fades in and out, but I am sure that this is 
a function of my marginal reception capability, not any problem with your 
beacon. Thanks for the effort to get it on the air.
