These beacons, Their signals are in international code? How strong is
your reception on these? Do they typically use AM or are they SSB
signals? With those close frequency separations, I would guess SSB
would be a better choice for transmission...

Thanks,
Bruce Jensen

Well, the letters may seem like Morse, however it is in Russian code (Cyrillic), but
for practical purposes, the Morse equivalent of the letter is quoted.

The code is sent in CW.

At 1924 I am still hearing the 'D' beacon on 16331.7 and the 'S' beacon on 10871.9 and
the 'D' beacon on 10871.7.

I'm receiving the latter two most clearly at 10870.8 and 10870.4 khz.

Yes, the frequencies I'm reporting are the carrier frequencies, or a close approximation therof.
