I don't go hunting specifically for radio navigation beacons but If I'm bored or think conditions are good, I might tune down that way with my ICOM IC746Pro and 25 foot long by 10 foot tall magnetic loop antenna. I'm in Laramie, WY And Thanks to Christopher Arthur, he's helped me ID a few. About the farthest away one I've heard is "QT", 332khz, 1000 Watts from Thunder Bay, Ontario. Actually, the airport is SW of the city limits a bit and the beacon is a few miles SW of that near whats labeled as a potato farm! Here's audio of "QT", 332khz.

Canadian beacons stick out real well because there's a real long really deep sounding beep at the end. _ Hard-Core-DX mailing list Hard-Core-DX@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/hard-core-dx http://www.hard-core-dx.com/ _______________________________________________
