Brian,

Not sure what it is, although there may be a frequency list  on line 
that could help narrow it down.  Since 30 meters is a band we share with 
other services, it could be anything from anywhere.    I think this is 
why US stations are limited to 200 watts on 30 meters, to avoid 
interfering with  these other services.

There are also a lot of similar  transmissions at the high end of the 
band.   You can tell from the sound they aren't standard ham RTTY 
transmissions (45 baud, 170 hz shift).  I think the soundcard  digital 
decoders allow  changing baud and shift, but it would take a lot of 
trial and error to find the right combination, unless you  knew in 
advance what  the settings were, or  maybe a program that will  detect 
baud and shift and set itself  accordingly.

Even if you could decode, there is no guarantee that what is being sent 
is in English or in plain text.  Maybe secret  war plans from the Chinese.
