[CQ-Contest] 20 meter intruder?

[Hank Greeb]

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.

72/73 de n8xx Hg

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.
