When I work FT8, at times the spectrum display shows a spaced signal.  I am
close to the golf course cart path and occasionally get ignition spikes
from golf carts.  But, these are different.  I suspect some kind of
"splash" from overmodulation somewhere in the nearby spectrum but I have
not been able to identify it, or even verify that it is a received signal
or an intermod.  I took some snippets and wonder if any of you have seen
similar.  Both 15M and 20M spectrum.

Of course, the wider lines are FT8 signals.  I am referring to the narrow
and evenly spaced signals.

Thanks, Steve Roth   AD4K   Villa Berea, Polo Ridge
