Willis,
I've not heard this before, so I haven't tried finding parallels and the like. I guess that's my next task. If I'd heard it on one of the SW bands, I wouldn't have thought that much about it.
I never would have found the thing at all except for playing with a new receiver. I was scanning the frequencies around IBOC stations in the area, to produce spectral images of the signals. (I can't believe how gross they are.)
I heard the beeps during the scan and looked into it, thinking it might be something caused by the receiver/computer connection.
The latest is that the signal seems to have picked up in strength in the last minutes and is coming in much stronger now.
Thanks for the info,
Curt

Curt-
Have heard the same thing, at varis times, on 1400, 1410, 1420, 1440, 1450,
1460, 1470 and 1480.
Most times it sounds like CW sent with a bad fist.
Same thing has been heard on 1020, 1040, 1060 and 1080. All freqs at the
same time in parallel with each other.
Never real strong, usually about an S-6.
Curt, have you ever listen up into short wave bands when you here these
noises in AM BCB band? Their also up in the 49, 31, 25 meter bands, as well
as inbetween these bands, at the various time. Reminds me of the russin
woodpecker in the 70's.

This beeping continues. I am tuning it best now in CW mode, 1458.55kHz,
300Hz filter, 0Hz Passband offset.
The signal is weak but there is almost no interference, so it is easy to
hear once you find it. No idea how far it may be getting out, and
absolutely no idea what it might be, in the middle of the broadcast band as
it is.
