But as I said, the interference was a CW CARRIER which was
about 1.5 MHZ below the top of the 6 MHz bandpass of
Ch. 26. An ATSC carrier is near the band BOTTOM. An
NTSC audio carrier is near the top, not 1.5 MHz below the top.
An NTSC video carrier is 1.25 MHz above the and bottom.

The interference was, therefore, neither NTSC nor ATSC.
