Why would someone send "SOS" on longwve - that is not an emergency frequency
anyone monitors ? "Brian Hill" brianehill@charterDOTnet wrote in message ... Any body else got this. I now its not SW but interesting -- 73 and good Ding RX: OR-5000, SP-600 AX-6, SIX-28 Ant: 100' longwise, Eavesdropper Dipole Brian's Radio Universe http://webpages.charter.net/brianehill/ |

as they are I don't know where they are S. "Brian Hill" brianehill@charterDOTnet wrote in message ... I don't know? I just heard something that sounded like it. Probably just a beacon.

Well, if you can copy down the dots and dashes and look up a few letters you can use the following site: http://frodo.bruderhof.com/ka2qpg/ Note that further down on that page is a site to look up US beacons.

Dots and dashes are the crux of my quandary. It gets hard to tell which is a
"dot" and which is a "dash" s. BTW, they come in very here and with good strength. Thanks for the reference. "N8KDV" wrote in message ... Maximus wrote: Ah, a beacon may be exactly it.
