Quite often WWII 720 leaves their carrier on all night. There
is so much high frequency noise on the signal that I can hear
it eight to ten kHz on either side of center. It sounds like
there is a blank tape playing. There is also some sixty and I
think one hundred twenty Hz hum on the signal.
If this is an AM station as I recall they have to ID the carrier once per
hour. FM's at one time were granted a wavier on the ID rules if they ran
subcarriers 24 hours and main programming signed off the air.
