W3EEE - ndb YQA

YQA - 272kHz - Muskoka, ON, Canada

YQA - another sweet, shy and subtle Canadian bacon. Sorry, beacon. A couple of miles east of Bracebridge, ON., just off Hwy. 11.

A massive installation, typical of many Canadian beacons, and only equalled in the US by the real coastal powerhouses such as GLS and CLB. Muskoka is a region a couple of hours north of Toronto, where sitting on docks on lakes supping beers is taken very seriously. Ask me how I know.

Check out the base on that thing!
