I noticed this on the SDR recording. Started before 2330z on 11 Mar 2014, and was going past 0900z on 12 Mar 2014. PPKD being repeated over and over.
Is this M89?

Hi Chris,

I have no idea who this is, but it isn't  M89

Thanks Ary. I've moved it here to Other, maybe someone has an idea who it was. Or is, for all I know it is still transmitting.
Actually, it is! I still hear it, very faint, at 1552z.

Being heard again, at 2050z, faint.

Based on propagation and when I heard it yesterday, it must be within a few hundred miles

Audible here on 3/13/2014 at 2053 UTC. It is very weak, but I can clearly see it (waterfall), hear it and copy it. Not only weak but moderate fading too. Slow code with long dots and dashes.

A PP could be a Brazilian, and that may be consistent with loggings?

I am receiving PPKD on 6813.2 kHz at 1250z this morning, May 26. I did a bit of DF with the SAL-30 and the signal is definitely arriving from SE of my QTH. Brazil is definitely a possibility...
