39° 31.855', W 119° 39.338' NGS Data Sheet KR1753
Note: 2011. There are two Beacon 19 locations very close together
on a mountain that is today the site of the Mustang VORTAC.
Both data sheets refer to "Beacon 19" and one data sheet mentions the
beacon being moved. The "Airway Beacon" on the 1:24,000 scale topo map
is at a third slightly different location. |

Beacon 22 |
N 39° 37.279', W 119° 11.834'
Note:
2011. This was the beacon located at Fernley Intermediate Field. There
are two concentric circles, the outer one approx. 100' dia., the inner
one approx. 50' dia., both about 24" wide, with a concrete pad at the
center. The outer circle was painted white, the inner circle and pad
were painted red. Ed. |

Beacon 24 |
N 39° 48.795', W 118° 51.413'
Note: 2011. This was the beacon at Parran, Nevada. I'm not too sure
this was actually Beacon 24 as the old concrete foundation seems too
small compared to other beacons in the vicinity, although
the coordinates agree with the CGS datasheet for benchmark KR1556,
identified as SAN FRAN SALT LAKE AWY BCN 24. I've seen some old maps &
nautical charts that show both a course light and a main beacon in close
proximity to each other at this site. After the weather cools down, I
plan on heading back out to this one to look around some more. Ed. |

This is the beacon at Derby Field near Lovelock, Nevada. I've also seen
this beacon designated as 26-A. Ed. |
