We give an explicit construction of linearly independent families of knots arbitrarily deep in the (n)-solvable filtration of the knot concordance group using the \rho^1-invariant. A difference between previous constructions of infinite rank subgroups in the concordance group and ours is that the deepest infecting knots in the construction we present are allowed to have vanishing Tristram-Levine signatures.
