Amelia Earhart commemorative 6925

<< < (2/3) > >>

Chanter:
Caught some definite CW at 0030, though it was too rapid for me to make out; my skill at code is limited as yet.  Then quiet until about 0037, when someone started intermittently whistling on the same frequency.  Anyone else hearing the same?  It's definitely not an attempt at whistled CW, more like the sort of thing one stealthy person would give another as a signal on approach, if that makes any sense. 

Zoidberg:
It's possible Earhart landed successfully on a reef and continued transmitting until the tide rose and flooded them out. Unfortunately it appears her continued radio transmissions after landing were ignored or not taken seriously: http://news.discovery.com/history/amelia-earhart-distress-calls-120601.html

Wow, Lex, great find on the follow up!

Sitting here with goosepimples, like every year I hear this station.

I'm cross posting this threat to reddit /r/amateurradio and have my posterous site links to loggings, and Lex's and Sealord's  older captures from 2008 linked, and will post segments of my recordings tonight as I can get them up.

Danoman:
Ran an SDR recording (DDC 100kHz wide) on this for playback later.
Had a S7 to S8 signal here and was able to copy some CW with fldigi live.
