I'm surprised no one has linked it with the Mexican UFOs!

Wow. That's great. I didn't know that.

I wonder if Glenn Hauser will have any info on this?

I was the first to report a very similar signal to GH about 20-years
ago. Back then we thought it might be a new kind of OTH radar. The
signal I'm hearing now (5/19 0130-UTC) changes tones faster than the old
one from the 80's but it's the same principle. I think it's an
ionospheric test signal.

I almost positive I heard this before too. It probably was 20 yrs ago.

Yeah, it almost sounds like one of those, what are they called, moosecall
thing? It's a little box or tube with a tight wire or rubber band rigged to it,
and when the wind blows over it, it gives a sound that, now that I consider it,
DOES sound a bit like this signal on 10.512. I just can't recall what they were
called, but they are supposed to scare moose away from electric fences and
other places you didn't want a moose loitering.
Moose loitering may be illegal, actually.

Well, the 'technical' term for this kind of signal is 'backwards music'.
That's because if you were to play it back in reverse and really fast,
it would purportedly produce music of some kind. Frankly I tried this
using Audacity on my PC and came up with crap. ENIGMA calls this kind of
signal XBM.

Wait 'til the MCLU hears about this.

On-topic: I've got it on now, 2337 EDST, or 0337Z (unless I bungled
the time change), DX-392, built-in whip at my secret listening bunker
a few miles south of the Pentagon. Wow, is that weird.

You don't suppose this is a pirate station being run by the cicadas,
do you? It sounds like something they would enjoy.

They were going full tilt today. For those not lucky enough - and I
mean that, as I find them quite wonderful - to experience them, the
cicadas put out a loud whistle reminiscent of the sound made by the
flying saucers in Ray Harryhausen's "Earth vs. the Flying Saucers."

A moose once bit my sister... moose bites kan be pretty nasty, mind you.

[Major silly cultural reference points if you picked up THAT little movie
reference. Sorry, but my USA keyboard doesn't do umlauts or vowels with
lines through them.)

I didn't hear much coming through on10.512 SSB tonight, which is odd,
because I have definitely heard that strange noise booming in here in SE MN
on my little KA1102 ever since the reports started getting posted here.
Tonight, I was hearing lots more on the "upper" SW bands, but for some
reason, 10.512 USB wasn't coming in too well here this evening.
