The other thing to remember is combining audio on multiple transmission you
have to decrease the power on each transmission.Same thing happens the
Fox/Hound mode in WSJT-X. Two transmissions at the same time need half-power
on each to combine them for example.
So you'd have more power out of your beacon by playing round-robin.If you run
FT8 say on the top of the minute (and bottom) then squeeze your other modes
into the 15-second intervening period that would work.Otherwise you'd have to
have a GUI control to enable WSJT-X to transmit if you other modes take longer
than 15 seconds.

Hi Ed,
It sounds like you are at the forefront of developing a new beacon network ;-)
I
would suggest that you consider setting up your beacons to transmit FT in the
first
and third 15 seconds of each minute, with CW and SSB each in one of the other
two
sequences. As long as your transmitter is synced with UTC, people will be able
to
decode the FT8 sequences.
