The Soviets were not the only ones using OTHR that utilized HF (some in ham bands). GE did testing that encroached on the ham bands (at times). I am saying that as I saw documentation that indicated this. I have not personally heard any interference that I could positively say was OTHR in the last 15 years.

As a former Radar Electronics Counter-Measures and Electronics Counter-Counter-Measures operator, I knew it was simply a matter of transmitting a signal of about the same frequency, duration, and slightly stronger than their "return" to confuse their operators.

I guess we should all be thankful that they didn't confuse your Omni D
for a swarm of U.S. ICBMs coming over the horizon...  ;-)
