Strange, unusual sound
This evening (Wed. Jan 07) at about 7:15 PM I was tuning my SW between
8.000 and 9.000 USB, and when I got to 8.425, I heard a signal that I have never heard before in all my years of SWL. Of course it is nearly impossible to accurately describe a 'sound', but the best I can do is say that it sounded like a UK ambulance: DAHduhDAHduhDAHduhDAHduhDAHduh...... Anyone know what I was hearing? |

Anyone know what I was hearing? Still there at 0358. Only hearable here in USB, too. I don't know what it is, but I'll verify you were hearing it, FWIW.
