Title: 4108 "...dit dit dah..." Signal
Post by: l0ngwire on July 02, 2023, 0805 UTC

Here in Central California I'm listening to 4108 in the CW mode around 0800z.  I am hearing a transmitter that sends about nine dits followed by a tenth dah.  Speed is around 18wpm.  A pirate beacon or a utility signal?

Never mind... not a pirate.  After I posted this I remembered I'd heard a nearly identical signal in March of 2022.  For several days it had "5 dits and a dah", then an unknown digital signal appeared on 4108.  So what I heard is evidently connected to some non-pirate utility use.
