Anyone know what the beacon is at 1.927 MHz ID is SC48

Haven't found anything with similar ID yet.

Makes no sense unless it's a fishing drift net or something. Do you live on the east coast?

Yes. I believe it is a fishing beacon from input I've received from a few other people. You can hear them stacked up all over that section of the band. Odd that they don't have to be registered.
