Re: ``Blob was also present on approx. 9680 khz at 1400 UT past 1415 but gone by 1500. (W) hat in (T) he (W) orld is (W) rong at WTWW? Tony Pavick, Hope BC`` I first heard this at 1443 Oct 14 covering 9672-9683, peaking about 9681, S9+30 while 9930 only S9 and JBM with BS. I notified George ASAP and urged him to turn it off. Next check at 1513 the blob is peaking instead about 9785 covering 9778-9788. Notified George again. Still there at 1528. Via Maryland remote, obviously Brother Stair if tuned in NBFM mode! At 1536 UT modulation stops, but huge signal still on 9785 and weak clear 9930. At first it was centered slightly on the plus side of 9785, then slightly on the minus side. Still on at 1553 but silent. Finally turned off at 1626* and by 1640 not heard direct anywhere else on 9 MHz band, 9930 also off. We should be on the listen-out for such showing up again somewhere below 9930. By 1805 UT check, 9930 is back on, only S9/+15 direct and NO blobs. Also see this: ``Last month (Sept. 13) I picked up a similar blob of distorted audio at 1410 UTC, centered approx. on 9724 kHz, although it was drifting around in frequency. This also turned out to be WTWW (with a shouting Brother Stair program), but it was transmitting in FM mode, or at least it was best received with my radio in FM mode. Very strong signal and parallel to 9930 which was much weaker. I also checked several online SDRs to make sure it wasn't my rig and it was well received right across North America and down into Mexico. Very odd. I wondered if someone was trying to rebroadcast the WTWW transmission. John Hudak, Ontario`` (Glenn Hauser. OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9955, Oct 14 at 1640, WRMI is still on, JBA direct.
