Just wondering if the high laser pitches I hear occasionally on 1390 is the
same?

That noise is very evident here at 0818 EST, but only on lower sideband.

At 0300 WABH is audible here but playing back Perseus the noise
continues in momentary WABH silences, so noise isn't apparently linked
to volume levels.

And on 1380 WABH **does** seem to be unusually strong for 450
watts at night.


After further observations, I'm 95% convinced that the culprit is WABH, 
and 100% convinced that they are running day power/pattern at night.  
They have a huge signal here at the moment, dominating the channel most 
of the time, and the strength of the spurs on 1370/1390 appears to be 
strongly correlated with WABH's signal level.
