UNID 6950 USB 0010 UTC Dec 25 2019
« on: December 26, 2019, 1807 UTC »
Late post:

I had parked my rx on 6950 USB before leaving the house for Christmas Eve dinner - after checking the audio file I found around 10mins of a tx starting around 0010 UTC that contained IS of various Shortwave Broadcasters.  I don't have a confirmed ID, but my guess is this is a partial relay of WLIS or something similar.  Near the end of the tx you can hear a het which I believe is Capt. Morgan just a little north of the frequency.  The tx came to an abrupt stop at 0020 UTC

6950 USB 0010z-0020z 12-25-19

Anyone else catch this?

Forgot all about this one! Captain Morgan was on 6950.4 AM at the time when a strong het came up from 6950, which was quickly noted in the Rocket chat room...there was a short mp4 clip posted at the time. Chatters were hearing one or the other or both....it was a mess while both were on!

Actually, the "WLIS Relay" was on 6950, and Captain Morgan was on 6950.4, hence some confusion! My attempts to tune in 6950 were not sufficient to determine if the WLIS relay was AM or sideband.
