I still find it interesting that the signal I tuned into in WNY had the same characteristics, 55 beeps a minute,as the MDK2 signal and he is located in Denver CO.

Just found this video by MDK2. The same signal was reported on youtube a while back .... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cQh6ReSZ5jA
The signal still has the 55 beeps to a minute cycle.

22 Meter Band HiFER Beacons / 13560 kHz Time Signal ? 0100 UTC 15 Jan 2018

I found this time signal on 13560 kHz  a few days ago. I have checked it during different times of the day and its always a constant S7 in WNY. You will notice a double beep approx. 6 seconds into the sound file using CW mode. This occurs every 60 seconds. Anyone have an idea what it could be ?
