1803 Something came through next to it
1805  Something came through next to it
2129 Still going!!!
0011 STILL GOING STRONG!0049 SNIPO still a 5555

Listening from OE5SLN Web-SDR Mehrnbach, Upper Austria, Austria

This is something! I'm grateful for this experience! Please kindly send a eQSL!

Or is this something we need to talk about in HF Mystery Signals? Curiously is perking in me.

It's so weird and I can't unhear it anymore! I'm starting to think if it keeps going, it might be a time clock for seconds?
