VK3YE experimental 40m QRP beacon received 500km away

VK3YE experimental 40m QRP beacon received 500km away Video Clips. Duration : 2.15 Mins.


Peter VK3YE's low power experimental beacon as heard at VK2IG near Gundaroo, NSW, at 0220Z on Saturday 26 March 2011. The signal level is quite low - while the CW ident is weak but readable, the voice ident is not readable. You'll need to listen hard to copy the CW - note the "12 o'clock' position of the AF gain control on the far right of the transceiver front panel. It's not bad for 20mW over a 500 km path! PS: my apologies for the camera shake!
