HF Mystery Signals / Re: Monster on 13.500 MHz
« on: October 02, 2024, 1925 UTC »
I tried the W3HFU 900' skywave loop; the signal was mainly a high frequency to low frequency sweep, the low to high sweeps would be heard lighter occasionally.

HF Mystery Signals / Monster on 13.500 MHz
« on: October 02, 2024, 1901 UTC »
There is a 120 kHz wide signal centered on 13.500 MHz.  There is an occasional CW signal in there beast heard using NFM.
CW appears to be "NIEEA TENT AAIA".
Signal has been strong all day, currently S9 in the western US at 19:00z on Oct 2.
Just heard another CW? transmission.  Text changes.

Audio of CW: https://drive.proton.me/urls/MJ5Z35Z3SR#B3KjRGjq86OZ

Screenshot of signal: https://drive.proton.me/urls/R2H2WHVQ5M#yxZ8XXanWJfn

Edit: Appears similar to CODAR but I notices a total of six carriers moving back and forth at the same rate.
