I can tell the bcn on 144.297 is in there but being almost zero beat with 
the WD9BGA BCN in EN53 it is very difficult if not impossible to copy in 
EN52.
Why on earth did you put it on the same frequency? A shift of 3-4 khz is in 
order.

Hearing it lightly (319) at EN43tq. Get most of the message most of the 
time. Had to tune until the BGA beacon audio was low enough freq to drop 
out.
