New OTH radar on 48 mb ?

Post by Ray Lalleu »

Hi,

On evenings from Monday 25 to Wednesday 27,
there were horrible utilities in the 48 mb.

Some of the most disturbed frequencies : 6210, 6223, 6237, 6282, 6319, 6330, 6396,
all approx because the signals were powerful and with wide bandwidth.

I describe the noise as 'bubbling machine gun" :(

All the frequencies are used at the same time, or none, and when used, the signals can last a few minutes up to maybe more than an hour.

Splashes and spurs were also heard, maybe intermods from inside the transmitting site ?


Anyone heard that too ? What do you think it could be ? (OTH radar is just a guess)

Nothing heard here, and till now (april 1) no disturbing 'machine gun' signals on or next to the freq. you mentioned. Just the usual noise.

Maybe Stanag 4285 maritime transmissions ? This band is a maritime band.

Hi,

Thanks for the replies. Happily, that pest was not heard again.

Michel, I heard that on 48 m, not elsewhere, and AFAIK, Stanag is the common "noise" (digital) signal with about 1 kHz wide band, quite different from that new pest.

Glowbug, is there any HAARP station in Europe ? Can HAARP stations operate as low as 6.2 MHz ?

Good listening, guys
