[Wswss] Update - Re: KJ6KO beacons on the air!

[Tim]

Update...

As of 05:00Z July 19th 2004, the KJ6KO CM88 144, 222, and 432
Mhz beacons are all clearly audible at my home in Fallon Nevada,
DM09ol. Using an IC746 and an 18XXX at 35' for 2M, A HR2510
/ DEM Xvtr and a 7wl M2 at 37' on 222, and a IC706mkIIg to a
440-18 at 39'. All ants are fed with 100' runs of CQ106 RG-8 type
coax from the Wireman. No outboard preamps were used.

Excellent job, Thank You Greg !!!
