[time-nuts] 1900kHz radiolcation testing on east coast US?

Hello,

Can someone please post a *.wav file of what it sounds like provided you
have an SDR set-up?

If you need someplace to post - please send the file to me offlist and I'll
put it on either an ftp site or http.

I am not so convinced what I saw wasn't noise or some stations from China
transmitting - which I have seen in the 160m band lately.
I got an AM band tonight also that was stomping all over ~ 3.87 MHz.

Thanks!
