Title: 6090kHz What the heck is up w/their audio???
Post by: CaptnKliegle on March 20, 2016, 0040 UTC

Stumbled across a strong signal on 6090kHz, can't seen to tune it in.
Web says it's 'Caribbean Beacon'.

Is it my rig or their bad TXR?

Hmm. I also have been listening to the 'Caribbean Beacon' transmitting from Anguilla Island. Only on 11775 kHz. That transmitter is
also highly distorted. I also have tried sending email's to the 'Caribbean Beacon', and to Pastor Melissa Scott. So far, I have not
received a reply. Her web site says to call her and tell her that you are listening. Hmmmmmm.

Hmm. I have read reports here in early July 2017 on the' DXLD Yahoo Group', and actual on air signals, that the distorted audio problem has been fixed. One day this week, I heard the Caribbean Beacon on 11865 kHz. But that was only for a brief time in the early afternoon. I suppose what I could have been hearing was an off frequency spur of 11775 kHz. As I type this they are supposed to be on:
6090 kHz, but I do not hear them at 0045 UTC, today July 15, 2017. Maybe they have other problems.
