<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div><div><div><div>To whomever it may concern,<br><br></div>There are strong packet transmissions being sent on 144.440 that are identified by the W1ET call sign. They are causing a bit of a disturbance to a large group of operators on 144.450. I imagine this is unintended, as the last time something like this happened it turned out the transmissions were intended for a frequency 600 khz higher, but the operator had inadvertently pushed the "shift button".<br>
</div>Could you please check your station and see if it is responsible?<br><br></div><div>Here is a copy of the transmission:<br><br><div><b>W1ET*>WIDE1-1>WIDE2-1>APOT21

<div> </div></div>It has been suggested that the actual transmission bothering us may be a "retransmission" of your signal by an "unknown station", however the only call sign in the transmission is yours.<br>
</div>The signal I am receiving is quite strong (40-60 over s-9 to a phased pair of 10 elements) in the direction of roughly 20 degrees from my location in Newtown, CT, and appears to be horizontally polarized.<br><br></div>
Thank you for any assistance you can provide us in this matter.<br><br></div>Bob N1UJS<br><div><div><div><br></div></div></div></div>
