That was me.
It's a motion detecting alarm system. I haven't used the 440 band in the
car for some time except for cross band repeat, but back when I was
operating 440 mobile I'd hear it over quite a bit of the band. "I
think" it was a high frequency sweep across a portion of the band.
Whether it was centered on ISM in the 440 band or not I don't remember.
There are a lot of link frequencies just below the 435 spot and I use
a link frequency for a cross band input.

It would have been intentional as it is checking for movement.
Call it a poor mans RADAR.<:-))

Repeater links are some where around 431 something, IIRC.
