Information received from University of MAINE:

We are operating three Long-Range Seasonde units manufactured by Codar
Ocean Sensors.  We are sweeping at 1Hz, with a swept bandwidth of
25.6kHz for two of our sites and 18.3kHz at the third site.  The
frequency that you indicate is at the lowest end of our current
operating range at two of our sites.
