Brian Justin, WA1ZMS, of Forest, Virginia, applied for an experimental license to operate a propagation beacon on 4m with the FCC in January 2010. It was approved, and at 1200 UTC on Monday, May 3, 2010, the beacon went operational under the callsign WE9XFT. The beacon sits on Apple Orchard Mountain

On 70.005 MHz, WE9XFT is transmitting 3 kW ERP to Europe. At the same location, Justin runs a 144 MHz remote-controlled transmitter, WA1ZMS. It is GPS locked and uses two 5-element stacked Yagis beaming at 60 degrees with a 500 W transmitter running at 7 kW ERP. Both signals are

The Synchronized Beacon Project (SBP) is an effort to deploy coordinated beacon transmitters on 50 MHz using a one-minute transmitting sequence of PI4, CW, and unmodulated carrier. Since modern beacon transmitters are multi-mode and frequency-agile, beacons that normally transmit on other

time-multiplexed modes such as WSPR can take part in the SBP when not transmitting in their primary mode. Beacons alternating between frequencies on the same band should sign CALL/S when transmitting on the SBP frequency to ensure unique entries in band-specific propagation report databases.

Justin told the ARRL that he had no plans to introduce the 4-meter band to the United States, despite the fact that numerous European governments allow amateurs rights on the band. He said, "This beacon is solely for radio scientific usage as an E-skip detecting device"

Most radio propagation beacons are operated by individual radio amateurs or amateur radio societies and clubs. As a result, there are frequent additions and deletions to the lists of beacons. There are, however a few major projects coordinated by organizations like the

Because there is no amateur band on 70 MHz in the United States, the beacon runs 24 hours a day under a non-amateur experimental license. 305:. The band shares many propagation characteristics with 6 meters. The preferred location for beacons is 70.000–70.090 MHz; however, in countries where this segment is not allocated to Amateur Radio, beacons may operate elsewhere in the band. 675:, transmits continuously on a number of low-band and mid-band VHF frequencies – 40050, 50050, 60050 and 70050 kHz – as well as 28215 kHz in the 10-meter amateur band. 336:
openings. It is not uncommon for VHF and UHF beacons to use directional antennas. Frequencies set aside for beacons on VHF and UHF bands vary widely in different ITU regions and countries.
