Several times now I've received German weather faxes on 15986 khz.
Anyone happen to know where the station is located?

Have any UTC's ready when you received them? I have no sign of that
frequency in any schedule I have here. Might try and catch a fax as
well, maybe I can get anything that verifies the station.

This morning I caught the tail end of a fax at a little after 13:00
utc. I didn't save it, but here's a part of one that I received a
while back:

I should have saved the one I received this morning because the copy
was cleaner. Anyway,
I've received these faxes at various different times of day, so it
might be worth checking the frequency from time to time.

I have mine tuned on it now and will monitor it for some time.

I just caught the last portion of another fax on the same frequency:

If you didn't hear it, it might be out of range for you. I'm on the
East Coast so I might have an advantage depending on where the station
itself is located.

Uhm, I'm located in the Netherlands... If that station is transmitting
from a near-sea location it should be within ~300 km or so from my
location. I haven't received anything on that frequency since I turned
it on...

This is the first I'm hearing of this. Flipped on the radio & MultiPSK.
Coming in quite clear at 14:20 UTC in South Jersey.

I'm hearing it too this morning:

I wonder what their broadcast power is.

While I was monitoring, there was no readily visible vertical bars to center
the image. There was a vertical line with occasional text imbedded in it.
Used that, but each time they started a new image, the picture shifted.
