    Thanks for your attention, I think you're right, I'll check it out soon.
I was irritated by their entry to the 6300 and at the same time I was surprised by the choice of this band. Free banders from 2.9 to 3.2 are actually active almost every night.
They probably do emit harmonics, but this situation confirms my need to make a preselector for my SDR receivers.

You are welcome. I think, preselector will not help in this particular case, because these harmonics are being produced on the TX side, not on RX side and really emitted on the mentioned frequencies of the 48 mb. Change of directional pattern of RX antenna could somewhat help to make them weaker on RX side.

Unidentified traffic in Chinese (female voice operator). Good signal in Kyiv. SINPO=44434-44454, periodical QRM from OTHR. Initially long talk, later - short phrases now and then. Very similar to air defence target designation.
