Hello Ricardo and all - I turned the rig to FM this afternoon while
sitting on 50.125 and I was listening to audio that sounded like it was
the audio part of the TV program Jeopardy...so this sounds like you
suggested as the audio sub-carrier from a leaky cable tv channel...I
tuned the FT-817 until I got a VERY broad peak of the signal on the S
meter around 50.212 or so...I just tuned around again and it either gone
or no where near the level that it was about an hour or two ago...73

Bruce, 
I have heard some wideband FM on 6 meters, around 50.220.  Turns out it
was the audio sub-carrier of a leaky cable TV channel.  If your 6M rig
supports it, try switching to FM on those signals.
Good luck in the magic band!
73, 
Ricardo W3/HK4BHA

I am in "6 mtr novice training mode" which means I'm trying to create
new habits that result in my mainly listening to 6 mtrs while hoping to
hear some signals...I'm certainly hearing a number of weird 'noises'
while I'm doing this...now you hear it, now you don't type sounds...one
of them brings to mind that I'm hearing very distorted broadcast
signals?...sort of distorted modulation which is short and seems to
follow voice patterns...so my question for you 6 mtr gurus...is this
what I'm hearing?...73 Bruce.
