I did not explain the directions very well.

The null is to the south/south west. So the signal is most likely
coming from the north of me.

Hi Terry,

Yes, I am in Georgetown.

Its 03:02 UTC.....had to watch 24.....Yes I hear something on 454+-
khz. it is a noise with a pulse in it that pulses every second or so.

What the heck is it ???? Its pretty loud here. On the K9AY I get the
best signal South/ South West. S-8 on the NRD545. When I switch to the
north it is S2 or so.

All good antennas are put up in foul WX. Adds at least 3db over a fair
WX antenna.

If memory serves me correct, you live in or near Georgetown KY.

If so, could you take a listen to ~454.2KHz for an odd FSK signal
that is not IF related. I have it on several receivers, one of which
doesn't use 455 as the IF.

I am trying to see if it is a local or it is strong enough for you to
get.

S5 for me on a variety of antennas.

I was planing on changing antennas this long weekend but the
3" of rain has dampened my spirits so to speak. I hate working
in the rain.
