Unknown religious broadcast on 10100 khz AM
« on: August 18, 2019, 2310 UTC »
Hearing a religious broadcast right now on 10100 khz. Anyone know what it is? I thought it was just an overloaded station nearby but I went out to SDR sites and hear it in other locations.

2315Z 35433 S5 OM talking about religious topics. No idea who this is, but signal is S5-S7 with occasional deep fades into the noise.
2350Z 15431 Signal dropped way down into the noise. Only hear bits & pieces now.


I think Skipmuck is correct, this is the 2nd harmonic of WWRB 5050 kHz.

I’ve heard it in Saskatchewan the last two days, I just checked 5050 and I suspect that it is a harmonic of WWRB, since it’s the same preacher.

They might be in compliance as for spurious output. Doesn't take much signal to get out when the band supports it.
