Yes, and it sent a correct Morse letter/number every so often!

It's a Coke bottle on a Morse key and flapping window blind in San Francisco.

I'm hearing what sounds like a stuck Key sending dashes (rate approximately
20 dashes sent in 10 seconds).  Does not appear to be a local signal and
heading approximately 90 degrees from Fishers Indiana (which is
near Indianapolis).

Hard to get super accurate heading right now due to Thunder Storms in
Southern US, but definitely close to 90 degrees from me.

Anyone else hearing and please provide heading from your location.

At 0600 UTC it is peaking about S7.
