Ultra-stable microwave beacon

Improvements have been made to the 5.76GHz beacon on Bell Hill, near Blandford in Dorset. GB3SCC has been given a high stability GPS locked frequency standard and DFCWi keying. The beacon now maintains its nominal frequency of 5760.905007MHz to anaccuracy of a few Hertz. Reception reports will be gratefully received by G0API, whose address is correct in the RSGB Yearbook. Alternatively, visit the web site of the South Coast Repeater and Beacon Group at www.scrbg.org, where full details of all their beacons can be found. [RSGB]
