[Elecraft] OT, but what's going on on 5.0 MHz?

[Rick Hampton]

Here in southern NH, it sounded like some kind of interference.  The 
sound changed as you tuned down the dial, from what sounded like a 
"tick" that rang (kinda like a Hollywood sonar ping) at 5.000 MHz, to a 
"boing" down around 4.995 MHz.  It's cleared up now.  Trust me, if 
propagation was such that you could have heard it, you wouldn't need to 
ask what I was hearing.

By the way, I've heard both WWV and WWVH at the same time on the same 
frequency (though you're not supposed to) and that wasn't the problem.

Weirdest thing I've ever heard there, but let's not dwell on it.  This 
isn't the Weird WWV Sound reflector.

Thanks.
