Hi Steve,

Assuming you listened long enough to hear the station's
call letters or ID slogan you can do a "Google" search and 
probably learn their assigned frequency, which is likely to 
be 900 kHz.

It's possible that the 1800 kHz signal is a mixing product
involving strong external signals, but I'd suspect a simple
2nd harmonic.  Do you have the general coverage module 
in your K3?

Second harmonics from BC stations are not uncommon,
especially when using a "good" antenna on 160M. (;-)
