IARU Monitoring System seeks Over-The-Horizon Radar reportsIARU Region 2 Monitoring System Coordinator Bill Zellers, WA4FKI, says Amateur Radio stations on the West Coast and as far east as Arizona have reported hearing over-the-horizon radar signals on the low amateur bands. The radar, apparently located on Hainan Island, People’s Republic of China, has shown up on 160, 80 and 40 meters and sometimes is quite strong. Typically there are about 50 seconds between signal pulses. Zellers requests reports from stations hearing the over-the horizon radar signals as well as any other signals that do not appear to belong on the amateur bands. He suggests the following report format: Your call sign, time in UTC, frequency, emission type, signal strength, propagation and signal bandwidth in kHz. Send reports to Zellers via e-mail wa4fki@nc.rr.com.
