Title: 6780 kHz CW beacon
Post by: Nomadiq on May 31, 2018, 0045 UTC

0043Z on 6780 kHz - morse code spelling out 'F*!K TRUMP' - with the *! being UC.

Heard in Poughquag, New York, USA via sdr.hu

Signal is stronger in Southern New Hampshire

Lovely eh?  Owing to your President's popularity and fame on a world wide scale that beacon could be any where on this planet, maybe even North Korea with Rocket Man at the key? 8)

At 0043z it would not be audible over this way, have noted the frequency for future reference in the hours of darkness.

Perhaps "infamy" is a better term.

Still going Sept. 2019, weakly audible in the UK. Has twenty 100mS pips at 1 second intervals, the last pip being about a second long. Then 2 sec silence before the sequence repeats. Sometimes the sequence is shorter than the 20 mentioned above. Has quite soft keying.

There is a 24hr Time Signal on 6.780MHz too, AXA-210 Australian Defence Force, somewhere on coastal NSW, can hear it here 24h.

Could be Naval Base, Jervis Bay, or Air Force Base at Nowra NSW or Fairbairn ACT, they are the closest to me followed by RAAF Richmond and RAAF Williamtown, all in NSW.

Probably what AlanC is hearing in the UK.
