I used to monitor some of these back in the 70's.  Did anyone else know 
of them?

UPI: 10.808, 16.372, 16.159

AFP: 10.941, 15.908, 16.184

Prensa Latina: 14.566, 14.928, 16.348, 17.453, 17.530, 18.195

USICA: 9854 Europe, 10.880 Africa, 12.222 Asia, 14.640 South America, 15.875

Reuters: 10.959, 9.887

XINHUA Bejing: 16.415.

I don't remember the speeds of these transmissions but i would suspect 
that the Prensa Latina were 50 baud.

Some of the US may have been 100WPM

WBR70 was a major weather reporting station out of Miami and they had a 
really strong signal into W0 land.  They ran 100WPM.  I used to take one 
of my 100WPM printers home after i had done a routine on it and let it 
set there on my ASR with Speed set for 100 wpm and let it run for a day 
or two copying their continuous weather transmissions.  Gave me a spare 
100 WPM machine for the plant that i knew was up to the task.

Somewhere i have the freq that they used to operate on.
