3700 Interesting Signal
 
Have noticed an interesting signal which has been reported of late on the WUN
reflector.

I am hearing the phrase "Varmint, I'ma Gonna Blow Yah T'Smithereens" on 3700 at
0935 UTC. It is preceeded by some sort of digital sounding transmission.

Interesting I guess is why this continues to be repeated.

And of course, that's a phrase uttered by Yosemite Sam of Looney Tunes fame...

seconds.

The 10500 (USB) signal is coming in at a fair level here in Western
Washington at 1900.

According to the WUN listserver the 3700 signal was still being heard at 1850
(weak but readable) in Arizona which apparently points to a western locale for
Yosemite Sam.

Still very audible here at 2152. I don't think anyone has quite figured out just
what this is as of yet, perhaps just a prankster.

I'll be interested to see when 3700 fades in, as it would seem that Yosemite Sam
has a western location.

ACE, if your memory is any better than mine, i remember
weird tones or whatever around 10-11 mhz about this time
last year. or maybe the year before. i remember lots of talk
on the web, and someone even had it on their web page. i'm
still reading it on 10500 at 22:20 utc here. it's sundown
and everyone's Xmas light are starting to lite up. so, lots
of hash, but still readable. i hooked up my torus loop/ Ed
loop to the sat800 and it's coming from the west/south/west.
wish i had my Wellbrook loop, it won't be here till the end
of jan. i'll keep the loop on it till it fads completely.
Steve, your the ACE. your better at this than i am. have you
heard anything like this before? too high on the band to be a
pirate? IIRC, those tones a year ago, was thought to be someone
or agency keeping a freq open. W/S/W of PGH is cinnci, where they
are having a monster snow storm right now. it must be strong to
get through the snow static. at 22:30u i still have a 5 to a 9
on it. i'll keep the loop and an ear on it till it fades. this
is the kind of things that keep me in this hobby. love this stuff.
by the way, hope you had a nice Solstice. and Steve, my wish for
you, a nice Xmas and a great New Year...

I do seem to recall some kinda tone thing... but perhaps someone else remembers
it better than I. Was it the whale sounds...? I'll have to try and look it up.

You have yourself a Merry Christmas too.

The WUN listserver shows Yosemite Sam on 6500 as well. Heard here at 0045.

Someone is going to a bit of trouble!

At the risk of colliding message threads - Perhaps this is the
"GO" code for kicking off the secret Wolfowitz plan to nuke
Houston?


We'll know on Tuesday, won't we? If this signal means that the
Konspiracy Kooks are finally right, then we may all be in deep trouble,
not just the Texans.

YS is still comming in on 3.700 mHz at
07:10 UTC (02:10 AM) in Western MD
about s3 to s5. and also on 6.500 slightly
weaker. Band seems open to the west.
Also noted foreign speaking stations on
3.700 probably Mexico or Western USA.

Question: What is the URL of the WUN ListServer ?
Is this some kind of an SWL Message board..?
Not familiar with this one pse post a link - tnx!

Thanks for putting that up Chris. I'm thinking here that at some point in time
that there was another transmission or transmissions from the south-west that
were also mysterious? I can't seem to recall exactly what they involved, but my
memory recalls that they too seemed to be from the south-west, and, that the
mystery was never explained.

Also, a night vision photo of transmitter site with possible links to
SAM transmissions.

Personally, I think think this is somehow doctored, but it could be real
I guess.
