Sponsors and Donors
Without the generosity of the GB3UHF sponsors, equipment and financial
donors and invaluable helpers and supporters, the new beacon would not have
been possible. Thanks to you all.
The support of
the many financial donors who have
given generously, to enable the initial build costs to be met. Several parts to
build the beacon such as the GPSDO 10MHz reference oscillator have been
purchased from the beacon fund .

organisations that have made the beacon possible:
