Re: [IRCA] 576?

[Nick Hall-Patch <nhp@xxxxxxxx>]

I'm pretty sure that 576 is a spur, Guy, because it has a fairly 
constant signal strength, and seems to appear and disappear 
suddenly.   1566  has almost always been badly smeared over a couple 
of Hertz (but centered on 1566.000), and fades in and out more 
"naturally", as well as always disappearing within a few minutes of 
Parakou sunrise, so I'm tending to credit that one with being 
real.  It only appears in the midsummer months, at least over the 
last few years.   Occasionally I'd get something on 783 at the time 
as well, but not this year.

1566 started to show the slightest traces a few minutes ago here 
(0410UT),  but there is no sign at all of 576.

best wishes,

Nick
