It is there all the time, 24/7. Thanks for the report.
I think I can conclude now that it is a local/neighborhood
noise source.

Try some harmonics of it to see how many places you find it
and if 6405 is actually the primary.

There is nothing at 3202. I once heard something about
the same at 12814 but I don't hear it now.

Is it strong enough to pick up on a
portable as you move about your neighborhood?

A portable is on my list of things to buy.


I've posted a .wav recording of it in alt.binaries.alt.

My ISP doesn't carry that newsgroup,
can you post here news:alt.binaries.pictures.tools

Done.

or can you email it, my addy is good on QRZ

BTW: I tried the Butternut and the Imax and tuned above and below,
but didn't see anything remarkable on the spectrum scope of the 756.

IC-756? Nice.
I'm running a TS-440.

Just a second thought, I seem to recall that those plug-in phone
extenders operated around that range. You know, the ones that modulate
the AC line with your phone data. http://tinyurl.com/svc2v

Hmm. The thing sounds like a somewhat fuzzy carrier
that sweeps up and down over a range of about 2 kHz in a
generally sinusoid pattern with a period of about 1 second.
That wouldn't be the best carrier for a signal. Maybe the
sweep would be to block intercept? But there isn't much point in
leaving the carrier on 24/7.
