Topband: Carrier on 1833

This signal, which has appeared, stopped, reappeared, stopped has been under
discussion on the West Coast for the past two days on the NCCC Reflector. At
my QTH near San Jose, it was 20 over in all directions, indicating near
vertical incidence. Reports from all over CA were similar.

Rick, K6VVA managed to overcome both the Telco and FCC bureaucracies enough
to find an FCC staffer with access to their wham/bam DF network, who said it
was within a few miles of Cambria, CA, which is a coastal town not far from
San Luis Obispo. Not enough data to say whether land or sea-based. Rick has
been trying to reach Riley Hollingsworth to file a Signal of Interest
report. He also has tried to find locals in that area who could provide more
resolution, although with near-vertical incidence, one would need to be LOS
with a DF loop with a good null.

Looks like a west coast topbander has a stuck key-down on 1833.0.

An hour after sunrise, S5-S9, coming from the west, from here in SW New
Mexico.

I'm sure more DFing would be appreciated.
