If possible, I'd like for members of the list to take a look at the
screen captures of what I presume to be KFI:

I don't think that this signal could belong to any other transmitter. My
period differs
a bit from what John observed (depending on how you measure the waveform).
The signal appears to cycle in about 8.5-9 minutes here. And the fact that
my
radio was in CW mode, rather than CW-R mode accounts for the frequency
difference.

I had wondered if the signal could possibly belong to the Cuban station,
which
are also known to drift a bit in frequency over time, but the Cuban station
fades in with my local sunset, and I don't start to receive the suspected
waveform until almost three hours later...which again points to a West
Coast signal.

By the time this waveform begins to appear, the Cuban station literally
blasts into Central Alabama...so that eliminates them.

Hope to check again tonight for the signal, and see if I can obtain
more data. If possible, I'll do an accurate frequency calibration prior to
that as well to insure that my cw output is exactly 800hz.

This has been a fun project!
