Kinda doubt there would be AX.25 on that band - possible of course, but I
was thinking commercial equipment.  The bursts last about a second.  A
subset seem to be using the same format but different amplitudes: garage
door openers, smart meters?  I haven't tried to analyze the transmissions
and they don't need to ID.  Maybe someone on here knows?
