SCOTT CHRISTENSON TYPED:  Yikes!  Did you catch the originators of this 
"stuff?"  And do you have any exact frequencies and times.
 
MIKE SPRAGUE SAYS:  The one where I heard the offensive lecture is 3210 kHz 
-- The call-letter identification is WWCR.  Tennessee is also given as a 
location although I can't recall whether this is for the studio, transmitter 
or both.  Because my DX-375 uses a loopstick when tuned to this frequency, I 
am able to determine that the transmitter is somewhere along an almost 
directly east-west line from Pittsburgh.  I have also heard these broadcasts 
on my FRG-7 at 2310 kHz but a don't know wheter this is an artifact of the 
receiver, a subharmonic, or another broadcast frequency.  I suspect one of 
the first two because at 1000 UTC they typically announce that they are 
changing to a frequency near the 21 meter band. This might mean that they 
have only one transmitter.
 
I will leave it to you to listen, if you are interested, and figure who might 
be behind it all.  I have heard individual voices profess several different 
organized Christian religions but have heard no evidence that any particular 
organized religion stands behind the broadcasts. I am beginning to suspect 
that the speakers are trying gain credibility by throwing in words like 
Catholic, Methodist, and Baptist.
 
SCOTT ALSO TYPED:  Isn't technology wonderful?  I remember when 1200 was fast 
and 2400 was "blistering".
 
MIKE RESPONDS:  I am of an age that I recall an ASR-33 teletype machine as 
being super science.
