Didn’t someone say a while back, that there appeared to be "other data" present on the transmission, but didn't know what it was, or used for... Or did I imagine it.? Maybe that's why they keep it going? 73. Dave G0WBX.

Dave that may have been me. Yes there is other timing data on the signal. Thats what helps the receiver do a better job of understanding frequency and time. The old austrons and such do not process the bits. But if I had to guess its easy enough to actually get them out to experiment with.
