AE6RT Beacon Description

AE6RT Beacon turns every operator running it into a node in a worldwide distributed radio beacon network. When an operator makes a QSO, she enters it into the Beacon application, which in turn publishes the QSO geographical information associated with both parties to all other operators running the program. Operators receiving these band open advertisements can then act on the information to attempt contacts to those parts of the world common to their QTH. Beacon therefore speaks to radio weather as much as it speaks to DX operating. Thanks to the fact that it is completely written in the Java programming language you should be able to easily deploy AE6RT Beacon across a variety of platforms.
