JFK reception
« on: February 07, 2008, 17:19:22 UTC »
Hi,
   I live in Northern California and I am listening to JFK Tower and for the last week I have been hearing intermittent static only on this feed.
   Is anyone else getting this noise.
                                Thanks

I hear it, it almost sounds like someone is keying up every second

Thank you, you hit it on the head, sounds like someone sending morse code. Other than that, it's interesting to hear JFK.

I have been hearing it for a long time now. It never stops, and can be distracting.
 If it is morse code, it is being transmitted outside the normal ham band for this.
 I wonder if the administrator of this forum has any information?? But it is better than no reception at all.

As posted in the Feed Outage forum on February 07, 2008, the feeder will be out of town until Tuesday.  Upon his return I expect he'll read these messages and attempt to rectify the issue.

Thanks,
