These pages were at first made for members of the Benelux DX-Club.
Johan Veldhuis and I made a trip from Metz (F) via Luxembourg,
Belgium and the south of the Netherlands with the purpose of making beacon pictures.
The problems encountered in finding those beacons resulted in building a loop antenna.
After building two of those antennas we made another trip in England.
We made a lot of beacon pictures there.
At this place I started a try-out for a beacon-picture site.
That site had first its place at Johan's provider and is in 2008 moved to a hosting provider together with this site.
So I have a bit room left to make this part of my site more official.
This page gives you some short descriptions about what you can find on this part of my site.
For finding the beacons we needed an antenna that gave a line on which the beacon stays. Two or more of those lines on a map, from different starting points, will cross somewhere and that is the place you have to go to look for the beacon. When building a second antenna I made pictures of the building process to show how it's done. At the end of this page I placed a list of NDB's received in about a year using the first loop antenna in Zoeterwoude.

At my homepage there is a link to the beacon pictures site of Johan Veldhuis. There are about 475 beacons at this site. We have translated this site into English too.
