Re: [IRCA] 1500khz someone with very noisy sidebands



There is a chance this is coming from Washington. The Nielsen "People-Meter" code generator has been modified to make it more "hearable" by the People Meters...some stations are pushing their audio processing to make the Nielsen signal even more apparent, in the belief that this will improve their ratings.

There is weeping among the industry engineering cadre.

I heard the noisy sidebands last night and they seemed to null to the
NNW-SSE from my near Charleston QTH.

I've wondered this too, if there's a correlation between the screeching
sidebands and WPSO.  I'm hearing both fairly decent right now at 0120 UTC
tonight.  Regardless, the screeching is most noticeable here too on my
South antenna.
