I have a few tips. One might be to run ARGO
http://www.weaksignals.com/ This program help to see the Morse code though all the noise. Second, if you have a CW filter, you can try to tune off the carrier, i.e. where the Morse sideband is heard, around +/- 800 hz. If you have pass band tuning, this is easier as you just tune to the carrier, then shift the passband +/- 800 hz for US beacon, or 400Hz for Canadian beacons. If you run ARGO, don't use the CW filter. I've found the display to be clearer just using a 2khz filter. The long "dahhhhh" is Canadian. An "undocumented" beacon just south of your beacon is at 414Khz, PYD, somewhere on the Nevada Test Site or maybe Area 51. It's one of a few beacons not documented. The others are 278, XSD, at the Tonopah Test Range, and 209KHz at Basecamp.

The beacon IDs VIN but the interval carrier is prefixed with two dits before the long tone. It sounds like VINI but there's no pause or any appreciable space between the two dits that come before the long interval carrier tone. In other words: dit dit dit dah dit dit dah dit dit dit dahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Anyone able to help ID this one? Thanks! B. |
