Utility / EAM 15016 usb -end at 1620 UTC 4/14/17

« on: April 14, 2017, 1625 UTC »

Just caught the end, the usual phonetics with "This is Prescott, OUT"

I thought these usually start at the top of hour unless it was just a long one.  
These EAMs may be a little more active with everything that is going on.
I'm going try to keep an eye on the EAM activity.

*forgot to put freq. when I first posted, 15016 usb.

VHF/UHF Logs, including satellites and radiosondes / 49.847 mHz Baby monitor?

« on: April 13, 2017, 1917 UTC »

Picking up a signal on 49.847 MHz, sounds like someone's baby monitor.
I tuned past it, don't want to spy on people, but do these monitors operate around this frequency?

Shortwave Broadcast / Caribbean Beacon/University Network 6090 kHz Xmitter problems 0354 UTC 4/11/2017

« on: April 12, 2017, 0403 UTC »

Horrible audio from Caribbean Beacon/University Network on several of their Frequencies for several weeks now. I emailed them twice with no response.

Not that I care for their content but you think they would be concerned that their broadcast is unlistenable.

They make Radio Cairo look like a local FM station
