Yosemite Sam
 

This via the WUN Listserver and was posted this morning:

For those who are interested:

The "Sam" Pirate that was so popular last month is now on 5 Mhz.

Can be heard in Southern AZ faintly on top of WWV.

I wonder if he'll be starting up on other frequencies as well?

Heard here on 10 and 15 MHz at 1520. However, the only thing Sam says after the
sort of digital buzz that was present on the original Sam transmissions is
'Varmint'.

Heh heh! Hearing him here on 15000 at 1547 utc...every minute, just
before the announcer anounces the time.

I am hearing Sam on 15 Mhz at 17:42 two times a minute here in central Ohio
very weak got the receiver on USB and playing with the notch filter.

What exactly is "Yosemite Sam" saying,
and why has he been named that?
First I've heard of him.

He's like the cartoon character. Now he's just saying 'Varmint'. In the past
he's said 'Varmint, I'm a gonna blow ya to smithereens'.

Indications from the past seem to point to a possible location near Albuquerque,
NM for Yosemite Sam.

To ask an obvious question

What do readers think this is? A prank? Spy station? WWV gone feral?
