Signal I’m curious about
There is this signal which can be heard across various frequencies in the HF range; I’ve heard it multiple times while dx-ing.
Does anyone know what it is?

Thinking of buying a better radio
I have gotten into shortwave listening this year and started listening with a Tecsun pl-380, which I found to be a good radio.
However, since I’ve started using long wires to fish for weaker stations, I’ve experienced multiple overloads even while using inductive coupling.
I’ve now sold it and I’m trying to find a better performing receiver that handles external antennas better.
I initially looked at the Tecsun PL 680 and PL 880 because theoretically they’re better than what I had, aren’t the most expensive and I am also familiar with the brand. However, everywhere I look on the web they are either out of stock or crazy overpriced. (as someone living in Romania).
Because of the problem with the tecsuns, I looked at the SANGEAN ATS 909X2 (which I hear is very praised in the shortwave community) for around 280 USD on the german amazon website. Even though I’m still considering buying something this expensive, it sounds better than overpaying for a slightly worse radio.
Is the sangean reasonably priced? Or should I start looking for something else?
