Interesting.  About 20mW from the 10m rig into the transverter via 3" of connectors.   Tomorrow I'll install the 222 cavity filter and will ask you to listen again.  More tomorrow.

Jon,

It is a solid S4 to me on 28.061. I figured I'd hear it but it is a bit stronger than I suspected. How many watts is the transverter drive?

The 222.061 beacon is back up and operational again.  The new beacon is based around a modified HTX100 10m rig driving a Transverter Store 222 transverter driving a small brick to around 20 watts.  The beacon is from BlackCat Systems.  The antenna is the same folded big wheel at 60' feed with about 90' of LMR400.   



I would appreciate any signal reports, particularly around signal quality.  Also, if someone could listen on the 10m drive frequency of 28.061 to see if they hear any bleed through that would be appreciated too.  Its really loud at my QTH so I can't really tell.
