UNID Radio Checks 8000 kHz USB - 1805 UTC 26 October 2021

Tuned in to hear the very tail end of

"...PAPA on frequency eight thousand...how copy? over"


I know that the frequency 8000 kHz is part of the larger 7300 kHz to 8195 kHz fixed/mobile allocation (yes, I know the lower portion is heavily used by broadcasting and other things and 8000 kHz to 8195 kHz is a shared allocation with maritime mobile / marine mobile radio service - usually simplex operations...)

Could have been a marine operator?  Sounded very professional, more like military or similar.  Have been sitting on frequency for 5 minutes or so and haven't heard a peep after the "how copy? over." transmission
U.S. East Coast, various HF/VHF/UHF radios/transceivers/scanners/receivers - land mobile system operator - focus on VHF/UHF and 11m
