[MilCom] 11.175 Wierdness (HF)

[jay]

Ted, list,

I noticed the exact same thing here in Washington, DC. When I tune to
13200 kHz I hear echoes. I jump from 11175 and then immediately switch
13200 and a second later I hear the delayed simulcast. It's not just
you. I know this because the center voice frequency keeps changing
within a minor shift probably due to the atmospheric shift. What
doesn't make sense is it does this consistently. In addition, it
doesn't do this on the lower HF-GCS frequencies (usually the ones
below 8992). Strange.....

At first I thought it was my aging R71, but it seems fine on adjacent channels. Their signals seem to jump up and down between 200 Hz and 1 Khz about every 20 seconds when the big transmitters are running. Anyone else hearing it - or, is time for a new radio? Heck, probably time for a new radio anyway - several, in fact! Happy Scanning! - Ted
