So if N9OGL's transmitions are legal power wise, he would basically
be broadcasting for the kids across the street. Maybe he could take
song requests. They can just shout out their front doors what songs
they want him to play.

I can copy perhaps 8 beacons on 13.555 MHz from all across the U.S.
Assuming they too are running the power level Roy calculated, N9OGL's
beacon should also be copyable.

You don't need to tell me the strengths of CW. I'm a CW advocate.
Just listen to the NCDXF beacons on 14.100. You can easily hear the
100mW tone all over the world when there is propagation with a simple
antenna. I'm just saying the RF Todd is puting into his antenna has to
be quit low if he is transmitting legal power wise.

I too enjoy CW- probably 90% of my operating. My comment was that if his
ERP is the same as the other beacons, then he will be heard well beyond
"across the street".

I'll try to copy a few of those beacons. Maybe there is info on about the
stations, and possible they have a waiver for an increase in power or
antenna size.
