Tom,
  I can hear the spur from WWRB on 1805 kc in the evenings here in west
central Florida. It creates problems for me when I work PSK31 on 1807 kc. I
visited the WWRB station in Copper Hill, TN a long time ago and they were
running homebrew transmitters at that time. I also hear the Spanish language
broadcast station with a parasitic that drifts between 1815 and 1840kHz.
  I will cc: other Topband operators here in Florida about the problem.

I'd like to assure everyone I would never publicly post a request for help
unless I was absolutely positive the station had a real problem and was
causing illegal interference.

I'd like to get:

1.)  SWL reports from anyone who hears WWRB's spurious on 1805kHz in the
evenings. This is an AM modulated mix radiating from a Manchester TN SWBC
station.

2.) Help from anyone in south GA or N Fla can help locate the Spanish
language BC station with a parasitic that drifts between 1815 and 1840kHz,
please  e-mail me.

There is also a VOA transmitter mix on 14025kHz or so (that is not from my
receiver).

Over the past 5 years, over two dozen SW and AM BC transmitter problems have
been corrected. Working as a team, 160 ops have gotten rid of several
problem NDB's also. Please help with these two!
