    Hearing the FreeDV 700e beacon on 7177kHz

    Posted: 14 Dec 2021 10:56 PM PST http://blog.marxy.org/2021/12/hearing-freedv-700e-beacon-on-7177khz.html

    With my new low noise QTH I'm able to hear Alan, VK2ZIW's FreeDV 700e
    beacon on 7177kHz.He's running 20W from Emu Heights in NSW. The beacon transmits every 10 minutes.Normally I use Linux but the version of FreeDV
    in the Debian library is too old for 700e so I used the macOS version.
    Alan's beacon has a feature where if you put your callsign in the text
    message it will replay your transmission
