[Lowfer] lowfer SIW

[Zack Widup]

Hi Garry,

I heard a couple dashers on or around 13559.8 kHz today around
1745-1815Z. Both were sending single dashes about one second long
separated by about 20 seconds. One was 100 Hz higher in frequency than
the other. They didn't seem to be from the same source as the spacing
was slightly different - they would occasionally overlap and then
separate in time.

I can't find any listing for these dashers anywhere and have no idea
where they are. They were in and out of the noise except for a few
minutes around 1815Z when they were both consistently out of the
noise.

73, Zack W9SZ
