RNA's 11780 transmitter is putting out distorted spurs every 30 Khz or so. The fundamental is pretty funky too. Spurs fall on 11750 , 11720 11810 11840 and they go further but get much weaker the farther from 11780. 11840 is RHC Spanish & is sometimes funky all by itself but the RNA spur makes it much worse. WEWN on 11870 is bothered by it too. I've seen mention of this problem in other groups but hadn't really been aware of how bad it's gotten.
5:30 UTC the spurs seem to be a bit further apart than 30 Khz. the one that falls on 11720 is closer to 11715 & doesn't bother New Zealand on 11725 which is inbooming at S9+10

I noticed the same thing about a week ago, and have been noticing it ever since.
At first, it was just on 11750, now it's on several frequencies and the actual 11780 signal itself is weaker than usual and distorting.
tonight I also had a Radiobras distortion / spur on 11650. Also 11715....
It happens on all my radios, so I know it's not the radios.
Obviously, their transmitter is in need of some repair.
Re: WEWN on 11870, Radio Catolica -- they've had a whine on their signal for the past two years. Do you hear it also?
