Has anyone been hearing data like broadband noise from Asia from about
10:00Z through West Coast SR, 14:00Z? Here it covers the 160 meter band
and is usually 2 or 3 s units above the normal noise floor. At SR it fades
away, just like the DX. It has been on every morning here for several weeks.
At first I thought it was yet another neighbor's dirty device the FCC has
allowed to radiate on the bands. But attempts to locate it have failed. I
began to find out that other hams in the area could hear it also. In
addition, there has been a noticable lack of ham radio activity this year
from Asia. VK6ABL and a JA told me they are bothered by over-the-horizon
radar and are trying to figure out which country is using it. I wonder if
others have noticed this and if what I am hearing is actually local or not.
Thanks for any observations you may have. Bob
