Solar conditions affecting telecommunications today!!

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.
