2024-05-09

Update 16 May 2024 08.00z: The beacon is back on the air on 10489.539 MHz transmitting "VO1NAR GN37pn"

 

The "3 Musketeer" (PE1CMO, PA3FYM and PA2V) built a beacon that is currently located at New Foundland transmitting CW on 10489.539 MHz.

Please keep this frequency free and do not interfere (by calling in CW , or similar)

The beacon is in compliance with QO-100 NB Band plan and the frequency was coordinated by AMSAT-DL.

It's expected to be operating for 6 months. The power is 10 Watts CW and a 1.2 meter dish.

If the beacon is received frequently, perhaps VO1 stations will build QO-100 stations.

The beacon callsign is VO1NAR (North Atlantic Radio)
