I have seen this several times also with "normal" receivers so I believe it is generated at the transmit side.

But never this strong. The cases I have seen the "ghosts" have been 15-20dB below the "main" signal. 

If the signal is inadvertently modulated by 50Hz hum leaking into the audio path, it would give exactly this effect.

I've seen that a few times with WSJT-X 2.1.0 using an IC-7300 as the radio, so it may not be related to the RPi.

I'm noticing a strange phenomenon using WSJT-X to decode FT8 messages.  Fairly often, I see multiple spots of the same station in the same transmission period.  Invariably, the highest-frequency spot is the loudest (and always quite strong, typically over 0 dB), and at 100-Hz intervals below it progressively weaker spots of the same station appear.  Here's an example:

My setup:  Carolina windom to Clifton Labs 11 dB preamp to AM and FM broadcast band filters, then to an RP-16.  Software-wise I'm running Demin's SDR receiver to CWSL_Tee to CWSL_SSBWave.exe to WSJT-X.

I'd like to know if anyone else is noticing this.  I've only seen it since I started using the RP-16.
