For example a simple WSPR beacon can be built using the Si 570, [5] or Si 5351. [6] The Raspberry Pi can also be used as WSPR beacon. Density distribution of WSPR spots, January 2014 vs July 2014, using only most distant reception per spot. An accurate clock is essential both for transmission and decoding of received signals.
A large-scale beacon project is underway using the WSPR transmission scheme included with the WSJT software suite. The loosely coordinated beacon transmitters and receivers, collectively known as the WSPRnet, report the real-time propagation characteristics of a number of frequency bands and geographical locations via the Internet.
The most basic radio-navigational aid used in aviation is the non-directional beacon or NDB. It is a simple low- and medium-frequency transmitter used to locate airway intersections and airports and to conduct instrument approaches, with the use of a radio direction finder located on the aircraft.

A tracking transmitter broadcasts a radio signal which can be detected by a directional antenna (typically a Radio Direction Finder). By rotating the antenna one can determine the direction the signal lies in and of course whatever it may be attached to. The EPIRB is an example of a similar device.

Sunday's game will mark the second Super Bowl for Swift, who cheered on her boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce last year with help from some of her closest girlfriends last year.
Radar beacon (short: racon) is – according to article 1.103 of the International Telecommunication Union's (ITU) ITU Radio Regulations (RR) [1] – defined as "A transmitter-receiver associated with a fixed navigational mark which, when triggered by a radar, automatically returns a distinctive signal which can appear on the display of the ...
