Hank - Years ago in the early 1970s I had the opportunity to visit "Jim 
Creek" one of the Navy's million watt ELF stations located north east of 
Seattle between two mountain tops.  I seem to remember the frequency was 
in the order of 15-17 khz and the keying was frequency shift at a very 
slow speed.  The reason for FSK being the Bonneville Power 
Administration who supplied power to the station couldn't stand one 
million watts being keyed on and off their power grid.

Lots of stories to tell about the station.  Do a google for more.
