Can't find any way to share an audio file. But, I found a signal that I don't know what to make of. Its 4 1 second bursts of what sounds like a STANAG tranmission, follow by the CW ID tone "TAH". And, its repeated over and over again.

I found it on 8430.94kHz, Mar-10-22 @0510GMT


Anyone want to tell this dumb newb what it is?
 

sounds like a navigational beacon for an airport,,, tah would be identifier,,,,
Not familiar with any aviation Nav beacons in that range. VHF air nav signals are 108 to 117.95MHz. And, I can't find an ICAO code of "TAH". Oops, I found an IATA code "TAH", its for an airport on Vanuatu. But, the non-directional beacon is on 398khz, and its Identifier is "WG".

I think it is ship to shore. The burst are some kind of synchronizing signal. The info I found on TAH is Istanbul, Turkey.
