| Many of you will be aware that UKSMG funded the running costs for the GB3MCB 6m beacon last year. It is now that time of year again and GB3MCB is again very short on funds, the total needed to fund just the 6m beacon for the next twelve months is expected to be around £130. Whilst UKSMG are not in a position to permanently fund this, or any other beacon, we would like to help keep this well reported beacon operational. GB3MCB is actually a cluster of beacons covering several bands and is located in a relatively sparsely populated area of the UK amateur wise hence the funding difficulties. If you would like to help keep this beacon operational, please make a small donation via the button on the right of the screen.UKSMG has started the fund with £30 this year; the PayPal donate system should allow donations in any denomination and currency. Any and all donations made will be used solely to keep the 6m beacon operational. The donation button will remain until the end of September.

VU hams licenced for 6m | |
| Amateur Radio operators from India have once again been allocated use on 6 meters. The new allocation on 50-54 MHz includes activity on the following modes: F1B, F2B, F3E and F3C. "We will be trying to get clarifications on why A1A and J3E are missing but more importantly J2B for AFSK modes", says VU2PTT, Prasad. VU operators with General Class license can now operate with 400 watts on HF, which is up from the previous 150 watt limit.(Thanks to W3UR and The DailyDX for this item)

New interactive 50MHz Beacon list. | |
| Dai G8FXM, has been very busy working hard in providing us an up to date 50MHz Beacon list, and I have been working closely in providing assistance to provide audio and realtime comments. Therefore, Dai can bring you a comprehensive list of Beacons in a list which is interactive and where you can submit your observation real time and hear the Beacon as recorded by the observer and these are available to download as an Audio file in the Audio column far right of the Beacon entry. I have recorded several of these Beacons to get the Database running . All members and Beacon hunters are asked to contribute and so we can provide the very best interactive Beacon list available online to our 50MHz community. How to get started, Go to UKSMG drop down menu, Go to Beacon info go to Beacon lists. You can search by callsign, add comments etc . We have a Beacon Map as well available . I would love to hear any feedback on users of the Beacon link and I will pass your thoughts and suggestions on to Dai, G8FXM. Please send feedback to ![]() Enjoy. Ian, G6TGO Submitted by Ian, G6TGO

Once we have set the students up we hope tobe able to go on and help others in a simular situation. please see for cash donations contact GD6TWF 73 malcolm...M0xat....membership no 2216Submitted by Malcolm, M0XAT
