I didn't expect it to be a
LORAN line this far away, I don't know the MedFER frequency band limits
either. Since posting the e-mail the line at 1705004.5Hz now has a
slightly weaker companion at about 1705029.5Hz but if the high band
edge is 1705 then it must be something else, the lines do not drift at
all, very stable. I beleive the MedFER beacons run very low power so
maybe I can't expect to see them anyway.
Gary,
Thought I had better check NC HiMedfer's frequency. I found it just a
few Hz high of the posted frequency. It is presently on 1704.980 kHz
with the temp an unseasonable 65 deg F. I have never found it more
than a few Hz from this frequency so an Argo 30 dot sec window will
find the pattern. I would guess your chance of catching this signal is
very slim to nothing but here's what it looks like:
73,

Hmm, I can't quite tell by looking. Highly unlikely to be a
LORAN line at that frequency any more. On the other hand, 1705 is the
upper limit for license-free operation, so if it's a MedFER, someone
might have drifted a little out of band.
