[600MRG] Anyone operating a reverse beacon receiver that might be interested in expanding to cover 630m?

[John Langridge]

Good evening...

Are there any reverse beacon receiver owners on the list that might be
interested in expanding their capabilities to include 630m for this Fall and
Winter?  We have had great success expanding activity on the digital
modes like WSPR and JT9 and I can't help but think that having a
number of reverse beacon receivers on the band would help out for CW,
particularly when things are slow.  I tend to call CQ early in the
morning most of the year and there are only a few brave souls awake
but having automated report capabilities would be helpful and might
drive some activity going forward.

I've been in the process of gathering components to do a receive node
at my remote receive site but its been an off and on project as time
and hardware resources have allowed.  Better late than never, I
suppose.  I will get there...

Since the reverse beacon software licenses are not free, I am
specifically looking for someone that has already made the software
investment and maybe already has additional  dedicated SDR receive
capacity where the implementation would be fairly easy to add to an
existing system.

Thanks for your consideration.

73!
