I'm sure this is a known thing, but I've never paid any attention to it so I'm curious.

HF Mystery Signals / giant ~50kHz wide signal centered on 13.936

There doesn't seem to be any modulation, just a huge number of discrete carriers.  Before it popped up here, it was up somewhere around 14.800.

EDIT: It just moved up to 14.511.  Whatever it is, it seems to be avoiding the ham bands and the broadcast bands.

HF Mystery Signals / Re: 7182-7196 kHz -- digital or radar?

And now it's gone... it was there for quite a while before I posted.  (The beeps on 7200L are still there.)

Not sure what this is -- it sounds different, and looks more fine-grained, than radars I've heard before, but I'm no expert.

Also, on 7200 LSB, there's a continuous beep-beep in the background.  I know this frequency is heavily QRMed, but this sounds very similar to ALE to me.

Tonight the frequency is presenting a perfectly normal, albeit apparently encrypted, RTTY signal.

In parallel, but much weaker, on 6880 AM.

sign on, Monster Mash, then talking, then Zombies

6861 kHz, waterfall art, "MRI" and bat logo

2315 UTC, art off, audio bandwidth now 11kHz, wonderful sound!

Huge signal, S9+, started at 8kHz wide now jumped to 10kHz.

2307 UTC, "Radio Illuminati, I'm your host, the Azimuth Coordinator"

This is back right now on 6831, it sounds like bad SSTV or WEFAX.  It's S9 in central Pennsylvania, so I'm doubting it's from Russia.

This shares a frequency (nominally) with New Orleans, but the fact they're a bit off, and the charts bear no resemblance to each other, gives it away instantly.  Usually when it's propagating up here to Pennsylvania, New Orleans isn't.

0010Z ID over Big Audio Dynamite's "E Equals M C Squared"

Huge signal but you're drifting all over the place.

Yeah, that's what I'm seeing.  If I knew how to upload a picture, I would've.

I've seen the big hump many times and read somewhere that that's what it was.  But I've never seen the narrow signals. 

Are there any theories about why they're using such an odd, multi-part signal?
