600 Meter long wave

[k9rzz]

I haven't seen this topic mentioned yet, so here we go.

I just logged my first few 600 meter experimental ham beacons tonight:

508.7 khz WD2XSH/31 VT USA *RST 339
508.8 khz WD2XSH/6 Longbeach MS USA RST 339
507.3 khz WE2XGR/6 Penn Yan NY USA RST 559

You can find some info here: The 500 KC Amateur Radio Experimental Group

More lists here: RNA > signals

What I did is use "Show ALL" of 3290 records. Then at the bottom click "RNA -> Excel", download and save that. Comes in HTML, so then select all and paste into new spreadsheet. Save.
It's not a list of what's supposed to be on the air, it's a list of what's been actually heard recently.

AWESOME LIST!

More later.

I used to do a lot of logging for that band. In fact, the 3 you mention are the ones I got the best on a regular basis. I got a QSL card from the gent in Mississippi too. One of the best ways I found to pick them up was simply a decent portable (e.g., Radio Shack DX-400 and DX-440) using the internal ferrite rod.
