Last night I heard a strange effect on a 6m beacon some
81 miles away. It sounded like a bad antenna connection
or AGC pumping. I tried everything from bypassing SWR
meters and coax switches, turning off my AGC, using
differant antennas, no help.

I asked a nearby station if he heard the QSB - nope!

Today, without changing anything, the QSB is gone.

If you have a mp3 player (who doesn't?) and want to d/l
a 939 kb file, you can hear a recording of the "mystery"
QSB effect I was hearing last night. It's at:
