[Heathkit] stack of comments from tentec reflector

[Byron J Watts]

ok so I decided to whip up a couple more responses, I don't recall if 
this reflector will take attachments, so here's everything compliled in 
one big e-mail:

There's what sounds like a steady carrier on 28.634(6 +-).  The only 
reason I bring this up is that it's so constant, and there's stations 
all over the country reporting it on the Heathkit reflector.  I'm 
running a Tentec omni-D with a 5 band coil loaded vertical, not a real 
hot antenna but it works.  It's about s4 now in south east MN.

Very weak here in FL but seems to peak at 330 degrees. A wobbly tone with
what sounds like 2 zero beat spots. Zero beats at 28.636 and 28.637.

>From NW FL. it is strong in sound but weak in signal strength on my 756
pro with pre amp off. Strongest signals come from about 220 degrees,
S-3. Pre Amp position #1 S-7. Mac

Still hearing the carrier after 6 hours of monitoring.  After sun-down, made
no difference, now a solid S 4 1/2 so propagation does not seem to change.
Normally before sundown, all 10 meter sigs disappear (except local ones).

I'm hearing it here in KY, S4 at 6:40PM. It almost sounds like low speed 
data. The only explanation for the wide coverage and constant strength is:

ITS FROM OUTER SPACE.

I just fed the audio into my computer and am using "Space Decoder" to decode 
it. It seems to be saying something like "need planet....food....kill all 
earthlings"

BTW: In all seriousness, I've been hearing a steady carrier on 80m at 
3521.00khz for 2 weeks now. My buddy down in SC can also hear it at about 
the same strength.

I thought it said "To Serve Man"

Just hope it's not a cookbook...

Note: I didn't edit any of these, so that explaines the goofy ones.
