4860 4861 ???
 

Sounds like sideband, but I just can't tune it properly to sound like
clear voice. 6:55 PST SF Bay area.

Intermittent one sided (as far as I can tell) signal.

If you have the gain turned up, try backing it down and tuning again.

I had the AGC on fast, so I don't think that was the problem. I tried
lsb and usb, moving back and forth. I even tried AM. I never had a
situation where I couldn't park the VFO and get clear sideband from a
reasonably strong signal.

Any idea who would be using that frequency?

Frequency inversion scrambling?

It sounded like I was getting a high pitch and low pitch voice a the
same time, so I just couldn't find a sweet spot to park the VFO.
However, I'd look for a simpler explation first before going the route
of frequency inversion. I'll keep an ear out for activity there.

I think the maritime radiotelephone has some traffic in that area.
