Third order mixing products, Marty. (2 * frequency of local #1) plus or minus (frequency of local #2); you sometimes hear only one of these locals, but it's the combination of the two that causes it. The mixing occurs either in your radio, or at some external point, possibly where there is corroded metal that is acting like a diode. In the 540 case (2*610) - 680 = 540 660: (2*610) - 560 = 660 Is KEAR (I think; still KFRC in what passes for my mind) close to you? best wishes, Nick **************************************************************************** Nick Hall-Patch Victoria, B.C.
