IW9FRA

I would submit to your attention a new beacon on 6m. The beacon, built from the Sezione ARI di Trapani (many thanks to Vito IT9GDS and to Mimmo IW9GTD), is a PIC based CW keyer connected to an Icom IC-726 with the power of 2W and a dipole antenna in N-S direction. The locator is JM68GA. the frequency is 50.007 and of course the call is IQ9TP/B. The beacon transmits a 9 seconds tone for tuning and then the string IQ9TP/B JM68GA. QSL to IQ9TP via buro.
After only few ours from start we have received this spot in the cluster:

50007.0 IQ9TP/B 29-Jun-2008 1558Z 579 <CT1HZE>
50006.8 IQ9TP 29-Jun-2008 1707Z bcn JM68ga 529 (TR) JM49oh <IS0GQX>

Great start for this beacon with a first QRB of 1885 Km, TNX to CT1HZE and IS0GQX.
