I've been hearing various things in the vicinity of 13555. Right now I am hearing a "5 5 5" station on 13557.00 plus or minus. It's actually sending "dit ditditditdit" with a very slight pause between the first dit and the following ones, not long enough to be considered a character spacing. Bu I guess this is the "EH" beacon listed in several places.
On 13557.10 there is another ditter sending a single dit about every 10 seconds. It is drifting up and down quite a bit, varying from 13557.05 to 13557.15 kHz.
I listened for the ditters I heard a while back on 13559.83 but there are several polytone signals taking over that frequency range right now.
I don't hear it now but a few days ago I heard the "Squarer" on 13555.53. It changes frequency up and down 4 Hz every 10 seconds. It is run by Dex W4DEX.
At 2245Z the W4DEX "Squarer" is coming in quite well. That 4 Hz shift is barely detectable by ear but shows up nicely on Spectrum Lab.
