This is the last and best of this three-part series.  Under a full moon I  tune beacons from a park where the RF noise is lower than previous locations.  This is a long video and is best played while doing something else.  Use the double speed playback function to save time when watching.  Note: KT (29:10) is a New Zealand beacon at Kaitaia near the northern tip of the north island.
