![]() "Doug Smith W9WI" wrote in message ... SNIP There shouldn't be any broadcasts on that frequency. Some countries do violate that but none of them are English-speaking. I didn't think there was supposed to be any broadcast. I've listened on that frequency, at that time frame on several mornings and this was the first time I've ever heard anything. If you've been listening for 30 minutes and it's now 1132UTC then you probably just missed the ID. You're probably right. My bet is that you're hearing an AM broadcast station. Either a harmonic, a spurious emission, or a spurious response of your receiver. Check the AM broadcast band on another receiver and see if you can find the same program. (you might not find it if it's a harmonic at the station - interference may be burying the fundamental) The format sounds kinda like Radio Disney. If I can judge from your KB1KIL callsign that you're in New England... there are three Disney stations in that region. 550 in Providence, 1260 in Boston, 1550 in Hartford. However, none of them (nor any other Disney station) have a harmonic on 3530. Of course it could be some other kind of spurious signal. I am familiar with those stations and no it wasn't Radio Disney. Doug Smith W9WI Pleasant View (Nashville), TN EM66 http://www.w9wi.com I should of been a little more specific. The broadcast was in English, but the music was in either Spanish or Portugese. I don't speak either so I can't be positive. I listened to the broadcast until it faded into the noise. I'll listen again tomorrow to see if I can hear again and then look around for harmonics. At first I thought it might be Australian because of the accent. 73's Rick |
