[HCDX] Log Report for Al Muick - 02 JAN 2011

[Albert Muick <radioresearch_field_operations@xxxxxxxxx>]

QTH:    Kandahar Airfield, Afghanistan
RX:      WinRadio G303e
ANT:     100m longwire


Anyone else hearing this?

5000  02 JAN, 0150 UTC, ISRAEL, 4XZ, Israeli Navy, Haifa.  Banging away
in CW on a time and frequency channel!  No sign of BPM or WWVH this
morning.  Station was in its normal "V" marker, then went into 5
digit/letter groups and then back to its "V" marker now at 0227.

At first I thought I had a spur or an image.  Israel is bit too far away
for most of that and I see nothing that can mix to produce this.  The
rest of the band is normal and I have no such effect anywhere else.  My
rx is not really susceptible to such.  I mean, it is dead-on at 5000.

This raises the question, WTF?  Bad tx on their end?  On purpose?  Sure
would make the signal easy to find.
