Kurt,
I use USB but CW is fine too. The bandwidth has to accommodate signals
somewhat wider than the usual VLF stations like NAA on 24 kHz, NLK on
24.8 kHz, etc. TACAMO often has a narrowband precursor transmission at
50 baud RTTY wherein "TACAMO" is repeatedly decoded. The regular
frequency-spread transmissions of course are encrypted but recognizable
by their frequencies, bandwidth changes, and intermittent nature. They
occasionally show up nicely as "blips" on Laurence's grabber
(http://kl7l.com/Alaska.html).
