Title: Ditter 4100 CW 1204 UTC 15 Dec 2020

Not sure what this is, I am getting occasional dits on 4100. A fairly strong signal, they do not seem to be regularly spaced however.

I hope it's a new one! The 4MHz range seems to be getting some new activity. I did look at the signal on the KFS omni kiwi and it does not seem to be a regular pattern but have to wait for a stronger signal

This mystery signal seems to be back, hearing randomly spaced dits on 4100 at 1110 UTC 8 Feb 2021.

Hard to say what's there. KFS SE shows a complex signal parked there , and though I thought I could see a dit stream, I'm not sure.

Of course, what I'm looking at could be completely different!

I checked for it yesterday, no copy. Didn't get a chance to check for it early enough today. It's entirely possible it is just some random RFI or other signal, but I'll try to remember to look for it now and then. Not sure what sort of a beacon would send random dits, unless someone is using a geiger counter as the input source. That sounds like something I would do  ;D
