I would think that very high in the band, above 3575, would make a
LOT more sense.
No - above 3600. 3570-3600 is packed full of digital/RTTY operations.

Hi all,
Just curious: How come that people operate Ham beacons in a
bandsegment that
we have agreed to be used for DX traffic only? What is the purpose?

The beacon that you mention (what I assume I'm hearing around 3.500.9
this
morning between 1130 to 1200 UTC) is on a lower frequency (approximately
0.9 Khz lower) than what I was previously hearing, it's much weaker than
what I had been hearing, and it's heading is much different from my
previous
measurements. Using my 3 pennants I would say the signal from what I
assume
is the w4hbk beacon is a little West Of South from my location (my first
estimate this morning put it around 190 degrees, and QRZ.com says
w4hbk is
186 degrees from my location), and this is much different than my
previous
measurements that typically were from 128 to 140 degrees and 150
degrees at
the most)"
Just FYI,
