Perhaps it is a spur on some sort of transmitter in the commercial bands
adjacent to 20 meters. If it continues, perhaps we hams could decode
the info, make it public, and beat the odss on the stock market . :)
Anyway I'll look for it today.

Folks in the midwest US have noticed this very strong signal from 14.000 to
14.0035. Some kind of data, some thing related to stock trading. The bearing is
90 degrees from EN53gb. It would be interesting to get some bearings on it from
further east. It's definitely not local, as QSB is present. Judging from signal
strength and time of day 20Z), I'd guess east coast of the US.
The bigger question is what is this doing in the 20 meter band? If it was
authorized by the FCC, have we lost our exclusive right to that band?
It's fading out here at 2040Z.
