It rotates through all 5 frequencies somewhat randomly and I hear it over a 4-5 mile radius. Fortunately, it is 20 miles from my home so it doesn't bother me on a daily basis but I do hear it during my normal commute. - Rob

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Strange Signal on 158.275(ish)
Didn't get enough of it, but I would that might be a prime number sequence like in the movie Contact. See what you get in on UHF Channel 37 (608-614 MHz) which is nationwide reserved for radio astronomy.

No idea what it is, but listen closely around the 9-10 second mark. Almost sounds like a faint noisy echo, or perhaps a distant responding station, which would be a form of ALE. Bob NO6B
