The wide width is most likely coming from receiver overload, or a noise
blanker that somehow elecrically is still on.

Yep, heard in Portland on 4386 kHz about S3 less than 4 kHz wide!

As other have said STANAG is very common on HF. I have used SIGMIRA
software in the past to decode it.
I hear the signal on 4286 khz very loud here at almost any time, even now
(almost midday) it is strong so I'd suspect the signal would come from CFS
transmitters near Matsqui, BC. I do not know this for a fact so don't turn
it into one.
I do know that the signal observed here is less than 4 khz wide and if it
was truly as wide as you claim (over 3 mhz), that would be a serious issue
and would be widely reported by the many amateurs in the PNW.

to your location. Unless it is some sort of high power military remote
transmitter, then others would surely hear it too. Is it on 24/7 or just
certain times? Maybe you should log the times it's on then correlate
with
times other commercial establishments are occupied. If you have a
portable
receiver that tunes that freq, take it for a ride out of town, park and
see
if you hear it.
