[TransAtlantic] Azores 2M beacon?

[Bob Cooper]

Greetings-
My friend Jaime Eloy CU3K is agreeable to installing and maintaining a two meter beacon which between us we have two probable sites on the western end-side of Terceira. One is at maximum elevation (without looking it up, around 3,500') and another is just above seaside - both would have clean over water shots towards eastern USA while the elevated would also have a 360 degree sweep being the highest region on the island. Someone needs to arrange for the beacon's creation, there is an American ham currently stationed at the air base there and shipping could be through his stateside address to avoid hassles. Jamie is technically sharp and a very dedicated ham - and understands the possible importance of such a device 24 x 7. Comments? 73, Bob Cooper ZL4AAA/K6EDX
