Pacific Region Radio Beacons
p. 56 · Read in the full issue
The following is a comprehensive list of amateur radio beacons on HF and VHF frequencies in the Pacific region and some outlying areas. This list was correct at time of publishing and is exclusive to PIM. Users of the list will be able to estimate propagation characteristics on various frequencies at various times. On VHF, reception of a beacon in a certain area usually means access to the repeater is possible, and that two-way communications may be possible with stations in the beacons area. As a beacon transmits 24 hours a day, there is no transmission schedule given.
Amendment: Add VK2WI on new 6 meter frequency of 52.402 MHz.
