ARLA/CLUSTER: Beacon australiano em 473 kHz (banda de 630m) foi desligado por agora

[João Costa > CT1FBF]

Mildura beacon QRT - for now

The main purpose of the 473 kHz beacon at Mildura in far north-west of
Victoria was to create interest in that part of the spectrum - it has
certainly achieved that goal.

More than 100 reception reports of the *VK3FI* beacon on 630 metres were
received.

The home-brew CW beacon feeding a Marconi L-antenna was heard in all VK
states and a few reports from New Zealand too.

A recent visitor to Mildura was Don Bainbridge VK3IT who reported the
beacon loud and clear while he was on a trip to the remote inner corner of
the continent.

The 473 kHz beacon is now turned off due to the early onset of lightning
storms, but if there’s sufficient interest it may return in winter.
