Jim and all,
I was indeed out of my depth. Thankfully a helpful associate gently
explained the error of my thinking.
I now appreciate how a fixed 1 kHz tone modulating a carrier produces
the appearance of steady carriers 1 kHz either side of the nominal

I was wondering myself how you zero beat on a sideband with a BFO, that
would mean that anytime a station used a test tone the sidebands would be

Has someone taken the approximate bearings that folks have posted and
tried to do a rough triangulation? This might narrow things down a
little.

P.S. BTW, rough bearing from Memphis last night was about 80 degrees.

Hey allI just phoned Kintronicsand they said it was not them. They have
done no on the air testing in the last 24 hours.Also, I agree with Adam
Myrow...This has a slight Deja Vu feel to itI remember a similar
situation about 2 years ago that went unsolved. BTW, the tone was faint
Maybe this thing is in the Norfolk/Portsmouth area. Big Navy and USAF
bases around here. (Nothing heard from it here in Tacoma).

Doug/Patrick,
680 was tough from here. The test equipment that they used at KTCT half way
through their work started being used immediately on 680 when they took it down
and that created a lot of noise to work through. My Grundig S350 (being
incredibly cheap) gave me an extremely strong
Did anyone read my post about getting a very strong carrier on 1611 at
approx 0630 UT last night? If so did anyone else experience this? I got a
loud het on 1610 from 1611 at that time which I was able to phase away
pretty much. I am getting a very weak tone on 1610 this morning at 10:39 ET
but
An odd morning, still some DU signs on the low band, audio traces on
576, 612, 792, but bigger Asiatics as well (no China, at least on the
low band). Upper band somewhat lively around 1530UT, with audio
traces on 1557 and identifiable China on 1593. Big hum, not much
audio on 1575, and fairly
We don't get to report TP's here very often due to a number of
circumstances, but this morning Rep Korea HLAZ-1566 was coming in like
gangbusters @1500 UTC. True armchair copy. I was expecting to hear some
semblance of TOH pips, but no, they play the Wedding March. Go figure.
Scanned other splits,
The tone could still be heard at 1400Z (9am EST) here in SE FL, a
couple S-units above the noise, but heard only briefly. Spectran
showed the 1 kHz audio trace for another 15 minutes but by 1415Z the
audio signal was gone, replaced by a barely audible nearby MIS.
Carriers however are a differe
Still in at 10AM EST. Not the the well-defined fat (4 KHz wide) 30 dB signal
that it was at dawn, but still pushing 20 dB on my scope. And only a couple
of hours before noon!

I'll check in the truck. With the loop and a decent sized parking lot and
my GPS, I can get a good fix.

A solid S5-7 on the NRD 545 since sunup. Seems to be coming from my
NNW. Occasionally Berts Oconee county TIS is audible underneath it.
Time is 0940.

At 0040 EST WED (11/29) morning, TT extremely strong in at my QTH in SW PA.
Around 0050 (I was checking intermittently), TT gone but strong classical

awfully strong for Toronto. // At 0800 EST WED morning at my QTH, TT
