I did send a message earlier that went through the purpose of it. Just to clarify, it's a ten watt signal generator that starts at 775 and ends at 805, in the case of WSKO-790. 535-565 when WDDZ-550 was under test. The mini-transmitter puts a signal on all those frequencies on it's way up, so it would be heard by anyone listening to any of those channels. There is no modulation, just a moving carrier. It definitely went through 780 this morning, and was sort of a pest. Not as bad as the splattery signal from WSKO, though. That differentiates it from sweep tones often played as part of a test. This does mimic it, to some extent.
