[NLRS] 222.061 beacon

[Jon Platt]

Thanks everyone for the reports.  At 4:25pm local I just changed the 12vdc power supply over to a different one as it seemed as if there may have been very slight hum.  The previous supply was a 7A linear while the new one is a 25A switcher.   From what I can hear here, it does sound better now.
Again, thanks for the report.
73, JonW0ZQ

The beacon is pretty loud over here in Plymouth, about S5.  I hear nothing on 28.061.  The signal is a little fuzzy but very readable.  My 222 antenna is in a fixed position at the moment so I am not pointed directly at you.

 I don’t have 222 setup currently, Jon, but there is no evidence of the 28MHz I/f here n Uptown.

The beacon is from BlackCat Systems.  The antenna is the same folded big wheel at 60' feed with about 90' of LMR400.
