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

Hi Nick,
I wonder if you and I are picking up local/regional spurs on both 576 and
1566?
I just checked now at 0105 UTC (hours before Seattle area sunset) and see
*big* peaks on 576 and 1566 (measured as 575.9997 and 1565.9980 by the
software after calibration on KEX 1190... KSL 1160 not audible yet).

Hi Kenneth,
Is that CBK spur still on 576? Nothing noted here last night, but
tonight it is back, and has lasted well beyond Meyerton
sunrise. Thanks for having pointed this out; it seem to be too good
to be true for it to be TA, hi.
best wishes,
Nick
