[ARC5] Strange signal on ~3595 kHz

[Richard Knoppow]

    3J would be China but Q has always been reserved for 
operating signals (Q signals) so there are no call signs 
beginning with Q. Probably not real signs. Be interesting if 
anyone with directional antennas could get a fix on it and 
triangulate with someone else.
