HF Mystery Signals / UNID 590, 710 kHz (And A Few Other Frequencies) @ 4/1/18 0020 UTC
« on: April 01, 2018, 2250 UTC »
Posting this for my sibling.  I do have an audio recording, and we're still getting it right now:

From my radio in the Mojave Desert, I noticed something unusual last night that I heard on 590KHz.  It was a whining, grinding-like noise.  I checked again in the morning and it showed up another receiver on the following frequencies (all in KHz): 590, 620, 690, 870-990, 1110, and 1610.  It doesn't seem to be affecting local stations all that much except the occasional noise on KWDJ at 1360 KHz.

I have made a recording of the audio log.  It seems to be appearing on other receivers too.

ETA: Here's the clip. https://www.dropbox.com/s/1ih5djp2bq2gyqb/0.590_2018-04-01_00-23-43.wav?dl=0

Shortwave Broadcast / UNID Italian 9435 kHz 1145-0130 UTC
« on: November 22, 2017, 1246 UTC »
Times listed are the times we were able to pick it up, not necessarily the times of the broadcast.  It seems to have faded with the oncoming sunrise.

An interesting UNID, because there are no stations broadcasting at that time with that language that I can find, but it had a call sign and a female voice, with light pop music bordering on soft jazz.  Call sign was illegible, though, due to some QRM at that second.  Reception was middling-to excellent, though hanging around S3-S5 the entire broadcast.

Received with varying levels of loundess on my Realistic, Pashpaw, my sibling, caught it on a constant but quiet level with their SDR, in South-Central CA.

I'm really posting this because I have no idea, but I want to know.

The really weird thing is, in trying to pin down a location, I couldn't.  There's not many nodes on GT nowadays, but I tried various ones including Korea, Canada, Romania, France, Minnesota, and Arizona, but no extra CA nodes since there are none active right now.  I couldn't find it elsewhere, and I like to think I covered most of the globe with that selection.

EDIT: That's 1130-1230 UTC.  I'd just woke up when I posted this, and hopped on shortwaves first thing.  I'm apparently no good DXing without coffee.

Catching what sounds like a loud, hammering noise.  Very strong, I've been catching this a lot recently.  Any idea what it is?

« on: February 20, 2013, 2314 UTC »
Picking up V2A on 11530 kHz from 2305 til now.  Sounds like its being jammed, or data, mixed in with voice?  No ability to record at the moment.

North American Shortwave Pirate / UNID - 6.925 mHz at 0333 - 0440 UTC
« on: August 02, 2012, 0442 UTC »
Got a faint catch in Southern CA.  Audioslave according to ID, but can't make out or didn't say a station ID.  ID was male voice, seemed American with a southern or midwestern accent.  Broadcast seems to have vanished after I typed that sentence and ID, nothing more on waterfall.

Have a hamster on 6.937, I think, so voice interfering with broadcast.

Not so sure if oddity or unknown data type to me.  Detuned tones, over multiple aural frequencies.  Will post a video shortly.

ETA: Video.  Sort of quieter than I liked, but here you go:
