Taking in account that is is heard quite strong in most US and even in
Toronto and that it sweeps in a fairly controlled way it is an
intentional radiator. It could be an ionospheric sounder or a sea waves
measuring device of a new kind. I think that an interference so powerful
must be discarded.
I don't receive it in Spain but I'm very close to several powerful MW
broadcast transmitters and they can mask the signal due to saturation.

Hi Tim,
Look for a switching power supply that is fairly new, and is
of the sort that doesn't need to be messed with to cover the full
120V to 240V range.
That sort of switcher is also known as a power factor correcting
switcher. It has a PWM switched pre-regulator that takes the
unfiltered ripple straight from a full wave bridge rectifier, and
PWM's it so that it can charge the filter capacitor, without the
power line seeing anything but a resistive load. It also controls
the inrush current.
PWM pre filters, because they quickly shift the pwm signal at a
120Hz rate, are capable of producing lots of broadband 120Hz
modulated garbage if their shields, or filters are compromised.

Would any time-nuts know of radiolocation-type testing going on, on east
coast of US, maybe around Maine? There is a very strong wideband
signal on
1900-1920kHz, with a 120Hz substructure and a 4Hz rep-rate, likely
megawatt
power range.
Sound sample (recorded with 2400Hz receiver bandwidth, although the
whole
signal is far far wider bandwidth) at
