"QT" 332khz Beacon Thunder Bay, Ontario

Sunday, November 24 2019


I don't go hunting specifically for radio navigation beacons but If I'm
bored or think conditions are good, I might tune down that way with my ICOM
IC746Pro and 25 foot long by 10 foot tall magnetic loop antenna. I'm in
Laramie, WY
And Thanks to Christopher Arthur, he's helped me ID a few. About the
farthest away one I've heard is "QT", 332khz, 1000 Watts from Thunder Bay,
Ontario. Actually, the airport is SW of the city limits a bit and the
beacon is a few miles SW of that near whats labeled as a potato farm!
Here's audio of "QT", 332khz. Recorded Mon Nov 18th at 1015pm mountain time

A tip for anyone into beacon hunting... Canadian beacons stick out real
well because there's a real long really deep sounding beep at the end.
