In Cedar Rapids Iowa I hear a constant warbly signal on 14.3175 upper
sideband, 24/7.

I am not sure if it is local or long distance. It peaks from the South on my
rotary beam. A friend in Cedar Rapids 5 miles away hears it also.

Does anyone else out there hear it also?

Yes or no would be appreciated.

Bill, is that it's zero beat frequency? I hear something warbly at 50 Hz
bandwidth and with a 5-600 Hz note at 14.318. Mine seems to peak to the
NorthEast but VERY weak here in NC. Doesn't move my "S" meter a bit. Can't
even hear it in the noise bandwidth when opened up.

Thanks Harold. What you hear is probably something different. I appreciate
your input.

There is some local speculation about a Central or South American source,
but I am uncertain about that.

Sounds like the fourth harmonic of the TV Color burst frequency.

Certainly does but my wife was gone for the day and naturally, no TV sets on
in the house. BUT now that you mention it, my beam did peak towards the
neighbors house maybe 400 feet away and they were home.

That is an interesting suggestion, 3,579.38 kHz.

Does that sound right?
