Topband: 1940Hz Intruder

[David Olean]

I am hearing three different stations here in Maine on 1610 KHz during 
the day. One is the Maine turnpike public service station, but another 
seems to be a Spanish speaking station out to the West. The 3rd 1610 
station is SW and might be a NJ county emergency station.  I have heard 
it in the past quite well during the day.  I also hear a very weak 
carrier on 1940 kHz in the middle of the afternoon. I will try to 
identify something this evening. I have beverages at 180, 220, 260, 290, 
and 330 degrees. The noise at night is loudest at 220 degrees, but is 
almost as loud at 260 degr. so I would bet it is around 230 degrees.
