Ok, last night, I heard a broadcast AM station on 1.860. The actual station is 930AM. Tonight, I hear them there, and on 2.789, and at 2.830... I'm assuming these are second and third harmonics.
Is it my radio's front end being overloaded (The station is a clear-channel AM station, about 15 miles away I think), or do they have a serious problem?
That is what it sounds like.Originally Posted by KC2UGV

Which one? I have a problem, or they have a problem?That is what it sounds like.
Hard to tell. I don't really know but ground conductivity was the first thing to pop in my head. Could the station have changed something?

1.860 and 2.790 are the second and third harmonics of WBEN alright but where did that oddball 40KHz up come from? I would try to locate the broadcast group's engineer and report my findings just to save them a lot of headaches since they can be heard at a considerable distance.

Ok, so you hear it too then?
Well, just got done conversing with their previous station engineer. WBEN doesn't have a competent RF engineer yet to replace the previous one
Seeing who to call to let them know. They are all over the place (As far up as 3MHz right now!), and the prior engineer let me know that their DX-10 is probably not tuned, and when it isn't, spurts harmonics all over the place.
Does that mean Kelli's full time in real-estate now?
Curious minds, and all that...
I think so. I'll ask.
Sucks living close to a broadcast station. You'll get artifacts all over the place..
