I have been using online receivers because of strong data hash interference in my neighborhood that I believe is caused by Uverse squeezing up to 100mb/sec through ordinary pairs of wires. I don't have Uverse but neighbors do. williamhassig@yahoo.com

Considering the second harmonic on the transmitter is measured at better than -50dBc, It is MUCH more likely you heard an image created within your receiving system.

Thanks all for making the best of a cruddy night.  Much enjoyed on this side of the mic!
