    There are a group of people that are trying to track malicious interference coming from Toronto. We are willing to pay someone to verify if signals are coming from a location in Toronto. It will be necessary to have a 80M mobile station as the signals are on 80M. We will need to be on the phone with you while you monitor a particular frequency. The interference is every evening between 9-1AM. For information and interest in this mission please email me at jammer@ww2ww.com. We should be able to accomplish this in one evening. $20 per hour for gas and time. Looking for someone in Toronto.

    Why not use the SDR radio network that will allow you to take TDR measurements.

    I've tested it a few times. Surprisingly accurate.

    I've seen some of that work but it didn't appear to be able to locate much closer than a general region. I think it takes 'boots on the ground' to get closer than regional.

    I fear that if they catch the guy, the guy is going to fear the bus drive shaft! :eek:

    Let's see now, "Experienced tracker needed . . . necessary to have a 80M mobile station . . . accomplish this in one evening. $20 per hour for gas and time." Sure, shouldn't be a problem.

    why not give the freq. might get some folks to listen at home and give signal reports through email or on a blog like this
    or on another coordinated freq. This was kind of the case with a very wide buzzing interferance months ago

    going to be tough to mount an 80M beam on the car for direction finding!

    Might not be exactly mobile though.

    I don't think U.S. hams are going up there anytime soon

    From just a few days ago
    To protect Canadians from the outbreak of COVID-19, the Prime Minister announced travel restrictions that limit travel to Canada. Until further notice, most foreign nationals cannot travel to Canada, even if they have a valid visitor visa or electronic travel authorization (eTA).

    These restrictions stop most non-essential (discretionary) travel to Canada.

    I'll try and tune in from here and give a listen.
    3860khz from 9-1am

    True, but a ferrite bar has a nicely directional null. The null is bidirectional, of course, but taking a couple of bearings from different spots should help narrow it down.

    I've used a handheld AM transistor radio to locate noise sources using this technique. It's much more convenient than carrying around a handheld yagi for MW broadcast!

    Why don't you advertise in a Toronto area news paper or web site?
