ARLA/CLUSTER: Radio-baliza irlandesa, EI1KNH, usa FT8 em 60, 012 MHz USB

[João Costa > CT1FBF]

Irish EI1KNH VHF beacon on 60 MHz now uses FT8

*Tim, EI4GNB* reports that the new configuration for the *EI1KNH* 5-metre
beacon is FT8 - CW - Carrier, with FT8 being in the first period of every
minute. There are no breaks, just 60 phases an hour non-stop. This should
make it easier for people to listen for it as there is a huge user base
running the FT8 and WSJT-X software.

Previously it was running PI4 which is a specialised digital mode for
beacons.

If anyone hearing the beacon tunes to 60.012 MHz USB, they should see FT8
decode at 1240 Hz.

Tim writes..."It is hoped that the FT8 addition will encourage more people
to check for the beacon, it being a simple task of adding the 60.012
frequency to their software's FREQUENCIES list, as ALL REGIONS and ALL
MODES, then they can just quickly flip over when working ft8 on 6m to see
if the MUF is rising to at least 60 MHz."
