Greetings all: For the record, I monitored 630 meter WSPR for awhile last
night, and I to saw the same" wide " carrier here in TN. for quite a while right
on XIQ's frequency. At first I was hoping that I had enough ears to hear his
QRPpp signal, but soon determined that it was some other anomaly of some
sort.. On another subject, Early in the evening, I was hearing a strange noise
that I have not heard before.. It sounded similar to a " whistler " with a
descending then ascending tone.. The frequency stayed fixed, it sounded like
someone whistleing with a downward pitch, then an upward pitch. Also
noticable was the fact that the repitions were consistent until it finally
disappeared.. Never know what you may see, or hear..

What's most interesting is your
waterfall, showing a constant, double trace, carrier signal
just above XIQ. I have that signal here also, so your
capture seems to suggest it might be a propagated signal
rather than ingress from a local device. I haven't
really taken the time to see if switching RX directions has
any effect. If it doesn't, then we both must be
suffering from the same local interference.

here, XIQ was fairly soid, XJM too, and one decode of XKA.

within the same time slots, usually separated by multiples
of 5 Hz for some reason. Had less of that later, also
for reasons unknown, and the signal was cleaner on the
waterfall display (attached).
