Hi Roelof,

Many thanks for the info. As soon as wx permits, I will take a Perseus to my RX site and see if the signal is still there. At the moment, I have the IC 706 running with preamp turned on, which isn't always a good idea (IM-wise) ... but it helps during daylight conditions.

Have a nice weekend,
  Wolf .

Hello Wolf,

This phenomenon is quite common for NDB's from the east
But not only there.
A nice example is UK based NDB CWL on 423 kHz.
Instead of two sidebands +/- 400 Hz it transmits a sideband at + 400 and + 800 Hz.

BIA is by far not a worst case example.
Some Russian and Ukrain NDB's have multiple sidebands and at close range can cover up to +/- 5 kHz from the carrier.

The cause is poor modulation or a faulty transmitter as in the case of CWL.

73,
