For radio amateurs engaged in propagation studies and DXing on the 6-meter band, understanding the distribution of active beacons is crucial for assessing band openings and signal paths. This resource presents a static map compiled by _Carl-Axel Lindberg, SM6NZV_, illustrating the geographical placement of European beacons operating on the 50 MHz band, which is vital for monitoring sporadic-E, F2-layer, and other propagation modes. The map, last updated in April 2002, serves as a historical reference for beacon locations, allowing operators to correlate observed signal reports with known beacon positions. While not real-time, it provides foundational data for analyzing past propagation events and understanding typical beacon coverage areas across the European continent. Operators can use this information to identify potential receive stations or transmit points for future _DX contacts_ on the _Magic Band_.
