I will just drop this whole 166.835 thing maybe someday It will come back ? and not really FED related so I do not want to go off topic on the FED forum I just mentioned it cause it fell in that 162-174 Fed area ...thanks for everybody,s input
another anomaly like "Yosemite Sam" just joking 73,s Marcy

(if you been around awhile you know what I,m saying?)
It is interesting to me because it reminds me of some satellites that I have received in past. They are in the 148 MHz federal range and had very strong carriers punctuated by musical tone that were used for telemetry . You might check the NTIA Federal Red Book for UTC assignments in 166 MHz to see if listed. There should be some Doppler shift if you have a receiver that indicates such.

I also went thru the NTIA FOIA document from a few years ago, nothing close to her QTH/Region

You won't find satellites, especially those in low or medium orbit listed with any sort of fiixed location coordinate system. they could be NASA, NOAA, DOD, private like ORBACOM, or a foreign gov..
The FOIA document has many listed allocations/assignments

NONGEOSTATIONARY or even RCVR RCVR

I was responding specifically to what you said here:
