The transmission can be turned on and off using the switch at the base of the tower, and while on, can be listened to just like any other radio station. The range of these beacons can be extended by activating relay towers near the settlement to boost the signal, increasing the recruitment of settlers.

The beacon is found in the workbench menu under Power > Miscellaneous. The songs that play after the pre-recorded messages are the same as the Enclave Radio songs from Fallout 3. Each beacon will gradually increase the number of settlers until the maximum is reached (10 plus Charisma stat).
