Title: Unknown dasher, 6940 kHz, October 10, 2015, 1200 UTC
Post by: Token on October 11, 2015, 0012 UTC
I am reporting this at around 0015 UTC on the 11th of October, but this dasher has been on since at least 1200 UTC on 10 Oct.

Unknown dasher, 6940 kHz.  Dasher is a dash about 1.15 seconds long each 5.1 seconds.  I have heard it all day, so I would suspect in the south west someplace.

I'm still copying this one at about the same level at 1116 UTC.

Edit: 1400 UTC (daylight now) and it's still there but extremely weak.

1405 UTC, Oct 11, 2015, 30 minutes before sunrise, I still have this dasher.  It did drop down to almost unreadable 20 minutes ago, but now back up to S5+.  Looking at recordings it appears I had it all night.
