A few days ago they were doing what I call "ding dong whoop." Then 2
second beep, 4 seconds off. I didn't record those events.

I down loaded the free videolan player. Nice app.

I think someone is testing a transmitter. It just sounds to me to be a
series of tones low to high and at one point a tone ramp.

If I'm awake at 2 AM I'll give it a listen.

Hmm, your original post never arrived at Supernews.

Interesting; sounds like some sort of channel
calibration/equalization/training. What were your
receiver settings (mode, filter widths, processing)?

When I first began listening, my impression was of
out-of-band interference from a paging transmitter
or trunking public service repeater slowed _way_ down.

I already stated the receiver was in AM mode using the 9.5Khz
bandwidth. No processing.

I've been uploading audio in ogg for years.
http://www.lazygranch.com/red_audio.htm
http://www.lazygranch.com/janet_audio.htm

While not much of an advantage for mono, ogg is very useful for stereo
scanner recording. That is, you record two scanners in real time. MP3
will share the audio between channels, while ogg behaves as if each
channel is discrete.

I try to use open source standards where possible, i.e. LAME or Ogg
versus mp3. FLAC versus whatever crap Apple is pushing lately.

Sorry, in the clutter of quoted material and since I was
distracted by the lack of the original post, I simply
missed that.

That is my guess too. The signal itself doesn't sound "informative",
i.e. no modulation.

The allocation for that frequency isn't all that strict(fixed, mobile,
some aero), but given the power and consistency, it is fixed.

Lame is a means of encoding mp3, not the format itself.

M...Sushi,

Tuned 2750 kHz @ 0:749~07:52 UTC

Sounds like Garbled Voice in AM

LSB sound was weaker.

USB almost could understand the {Male?} Voice.

Tuned up and down the Band 1000 Hz in
both AM and USB with no better results.

At 07:52 UTC the Signal was gone. ~ RHF

Second harmonic of MW transmitter (either transmitted, or generated in
your receiver)?

What do you hear now? At about 0200Z 03-27-2008 I am hearing a
steady slow male reader in a language that sounds a bit like
Spanish (but I can't make it out for the noise level). Mode
is USB, QTH No. MN.
