Given the power they use, I wonder if NOAA or someone else is using it hear
on this side of the country ?

watts or less, they are getting out phenomenally well LOL. I think they
must
be using more than that. Why does it have to run 24/7 ? I always
thought
radar operated at much higher frequencies.

Perhaps he was quoting 'average power', in which case the peak power
could be well over a kilowatt.

I live in Maine and the frequency that I get the most interferance from
is 4.8.
So I guess the interferance I'm getting is from Green Island, Maine or
maybe
Yarmouth Nova Scotia. The really sickening thing about it, I can hear it
24/7, it never goes away.
