That's one of those sidebands from Wild Bill's 4CX1000 amp.

Thats it John

almost looks like something banging on the Osc. causing a mechanical
resonance  Shades of " ON THE BEACH "   Har

I would be surprised if both of our rcvrs acted in the same way
if it is CFH I dont recall it being that strong at this QTH
but  ??    Hope whatever it is they keep their BW down
