That "day" of transmissions sounded more like a recording of morse
code being played every minute. Some radios have a feature that will
allow the operator to record him or herself and play it back
repeatedly as in calling CQ or QRZ. I've heard its use on Field Day
as well as in some YouTube videos.<br>

<div>I'm glad this issue was resolved, and
for what its worth, there are at least 50
hams in the area which would have made it
time consuming to contact each one. This
was a good (not good) unplanned fox hunt,
and it reminds me of the time there was
interference on the 146.92 repeater years
ago. At the time I had an Icom mobile
which had an attenuator on the squelch
control, so it was relatively easy to
narrow the signal down to a few square
blocks.
