I discovered your page today and decided to scan around the HF spectrum
for some of the beacons you have listed. I am pleased to let you know
that I copied the OK beacon on 3450kHz with a signal strength of about
529. I am using a Kenwood TS450S with a 40 Meter dipole. I also have
a homebrew 500Hz audio filter so although there was atmospheric noise,
the signal was easily copyable.
Take care,
