131326Z APR 2024 15016.0 kHz USB
13:26Z One of the HFGCS transmitters can still be heard purring away on 15016.0 kHz.

I heard it this morning too.  Still hammering away at 2201z.  Must be one hot transmitter.

1615z SHIVA16 calling MUDBUG for r/c, no response.
1616z SHIVA13 calling RAYMOND 12 for r/c, no response.
1618z SHIVA13 calling RAYMOND 12.  Then calling any station for r/c. no response.

I take back what I said last month about MAINSAIL being more responsive.  USAF radio communication is terrible; can't even get anyone to respond on the main HF frequency.

1623z SHIVA13 calling any station for r/c.  ANDREWS finally answers.
1624z SHIVA17 calling MUDBUG.  ANDREWS and SHIVA13 answer.

Interesting recording.  Sounds like a spoof to me also.

S6 2349z with RTTY over the top.  RTTY sounding like someone bumped the vfo??  Constant interval beep too.
The background RTTY seems to be on some type of loop.  When it starts and ends, the sound is unique...
I have heard some weird stuff on HF, but this is near the top of the list.
0010z numbers seem to have stopped.  beeping and rtty continue.
0014z just the beeps, and those just stopped

Weak here too, pretty much at the noise level.  A lot of discussion on the UXDF mailing list about these signals.
6230 just a bit stronger.

Just saw a post by Ary on the UXDF list that references this frequency also many other Russian channel marker frequencies with the ‘pip’.
