I worked for GE and worked on the GE system that did this. That's all I can or will say about it.

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.

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...  ;-)
