In Amateur radio news: Ham operators hearing a raunchy sounding signal centered at 3860 Khz should be aware that it may well be a T1 line leaking signal nearby.  Telcos use a modulation scheme and data rate over a bidirectional cable that, if not well shielded, can cause interference to the ham radio community in the 75/80 meter band.  Be aware though, that many refer to "T1" incorrectly.  Most people when referring to "T1" are simply referring to their speed of approx 1.5 Mbps.  In reality a "T1" line is a line carrying a DS-1 signal modulated at 1544 Khz rate +/- 75 Khz using an AMI code causing a resulting signal at 3860 Khz. Internet service provided by DSL is not to blame for this interference.  Contact the telephone company if you suspect interference from their lines at or near this frequency. www.dxzone.com VHF Aurora: 144 MHz E-Skip in EU: 144 MHz E-Skip in NA:   From The DXrobot Fact of the Day                                  Satellite info links:                              (general info) www.satcodx.com                             (general info) www.heavens-above.com(Includes space station info)                              (general info) www.lyngsat.com Contact us at:                             © 2002/2010 Cablehelp.com  Cablehelp.com is operated by Stan Jones, a ham radio operator of 14 years and a technician with 40+ years of electronics experience.  He also holds a general class commercial radiotelephone license.  He is Extra class KC5UYF.   For more info call:  662 335 4484     snail mail:                                                                       p.o. box 240                                                                      Avon, MS 38723                                                          Questions/comments:  stanj6@suddenlink.net   page last updated 09/29/2011
