I wonder whether this is in fact a "beat note" between two of the other stations ?? dot, dash and space lengths are often selected to suit the user and 3:1 is not always chosen, but once the keying starts the dots and dashes and spaces should come out at the same length. For instance compare the two dots in your "I" with two of the dots in the "6" and there is a big difference. Fading can affect this a little but the signal seems steady over the call-sign period. One the other hand one mans 60 sec dot may be anothers 50 sec. dot. Brian should be near perfect as his elements start on the GPS "ticks", and his sending is near "coherent" Just a possibility ??
