UNID 1650 AM 24/7 11 JUL 2024

For a while now, I've noticed a drifty carrier on 1650 AM, somewhat similar to WEDG 1620, a local (maybe not quite) Part 15 station. With the difference that the signal strength of 1650 is stronger at night vs daytime, so I don't think it's local. It's never stronger than other stations on 1650.

Back in 2018 I was hearing a pirate on 1650: https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,44425.0.html

Here's the high resolution waterfall generated by Carrier Sleuth for 1650 kHz (yes it is a large image):




And the same for 1620, for comparison:
