[160m] BC Interference

[Lefczik, Larry D]

+ 
+ By catching a clear callsign and city name, I've positively 
+ identified the
+ strong BC station buzzy broken carrier on 1853 that is splattering and
+ spitting from 1810 to 1880. (The broken-up carrier on 1853 is 
+ over S9 here.)
+ 
+ It is WTJS in Jackson Tn.
+ 
+ The engineer tells me they installed a new transmitter three 
+ weeks ago. They
+ have been aware for several days now the transmitter has a 
+ problem, but have
+ not even bothered to call the manufacturer that sold them the 
+ transmitter
+ yet.
+ 
+ Interesting change. I remember when I used to do BC 
+ Engineering work in the
+ 70's. We would either immediately correct a problem or pull a 
+ transmitter
+ off the air if it had a problem like that. Now they don't even bother
+ looking at it.
