People are reporting these strange CW signals across the 40m band.
Weird CW signals
Perhaps they are trying to emulate a mechanical key with no audio control (although a vertical wouldn’t sound like that)
But what could be a purpose?
Another weird thing is that those sigs are present on four frequencies simultaneously with S9+:
7041.50 kHz
7048.50 kHz
7063.00 kHz
7070.00 kHz
Weird CW on 40m.
Any thoughts on this?
