After several months of being off the air, the WB9PNU 10 GHz beacon is once again up and operating from DePaul Hospital in Bridgeton, MO EM48ss thanks to the hard work and dedication of Mel K0PFX and John WB9PNU. The beacon was thoroughly checked out by Mel and the slot antenna mount was replaced with a stronger mount and the assembly put into a water proof container.
The beacon operates at 10.368.900 with an AFSK CW telemetry. The telemetry data is no longer accurate because of control voltage issues. That will be a future project to re-calibrate the telemetry.
