An up to date beacon list, in a sortable form are available at http://www.g0lfp.com/beacons Please report any errors or omissions that might have crept in. The list was compiled by G0LGS, and is believed up to date. Steve - G0LFP
Many of you are simply re-using unreliable listings.
Its even a little disappointing to see a G station listing long dead GB3 beacons...
Just about all active 6m beacons are extracted from direct spot and dxcluster into

- and for Europe its pretty good for higher bands too
There you will find live info, tables and maps
Some could do the world a favour by removing old static listings of the internet.
- or encouraging updates by keepers or National Societies of the central databases such as the IARU-R1 table which is now on a modern database platform

PS and watch out for GB3NGI coming on line very shortly...
Thanks for your helpful reply. If you would like to report any errors in/omissions from the list in order to keep it up to date. Similarly, if you know of "long dead GB3 beacons...", you neglect to say which, that are definitely NOT returning to the air, they can also be easily removed from the list. Please advise, not criticise. R1 listings are very useful, to people only interested in R1. - Steve, G0LFP
In the Database on my site GB3MLY and GB3LER (2m and 70cm) have been marked as 'QRT' for some-time (just like on the IARU R1 List) - I have however changed these entries so that they do not appear when the list is viewed from my site (that may not prevent them being shown on other sites that use my data).
Similarly GB3NGI is shown as 'Planned' for both 70cm and 6m and has been for some-time.
I see that does not work for a casual vistor (clicking most of the links in the menu does nothing) and you get no sensible indication as to why !
You have to login as Guest to use the site at all (for me it is not as clear that this is required as it should be) - and then some of the links become unavailable including the one that would seem to take you to a contact page.
WHAT A WASTE !
(I did register over a year ago, but I have not logged in for months and do not recall my login details or even which email address I registered with at the time).
