[OZAPRS] VK4VP-15 Query 1.30pm Saturday extremelyfrequentbeacons?

[Gordon Taylor]

Gee guys, talk about me when I am way.....


Yes a TT3, but not default settings, 30 degree turn before it will beacon
on
HF.

The reason for the large number of beacons around 1:30pm where many many
hairpin bends on a section of road in Goulburn River National Park near
Muswellbrook.  If you think it is beaconing too much I can reduce it a bit
by increasing the turn angle of even turning off smart beaconing on HF.

Will be traveling down to Wollongong from Lithgow on Saturday 14/4 then up
the east coast to the Sunshine Coast (home).

Plus a bit of driving around in the blue mountains and out to Hill End
etc.


Regards  Gordon VK4VP-15

Gday Brian,

Looks like a TT3 running with smart beaconing enabled with default
settings
.. Im getting posits from him every 10 to 20 seconds or so .. Way too many
for HF .. Have you tried giving him a call on HF .. maybe he's listening
on
30m as well ?
Great track of him though !! ..

cul & Happy Easter .. Andrew .. VK5EX
