Sorry I sounds so dumb, but my dad was into this stuff years ago, but I was too young to remember how he really did it. I know he had a handheld and a desktop scanner. I remember the desktop costing my mum fortune! Is that what I need for this because of the stuff I have seen recommended are just like normal radios that ain’t going to pick up anything from any other country, except the one I’m in! So do you need extra equipment or something for these radios? I wanna be able to pick up Russia too! I’m really sorry to come along and ask stupid questions. I didn’t like the look of what people said they were recommending, because of the people that said that all it does is pick up the local taxi rank, which is a bit useless for the money, if I get myself a decent scanner, will I be able to get things from outside the UK or do I really need some kind of radio? Thanks ever so much everyone! Just to add I’m disabled with cancer. So money really is a problem for me so I don’t wanna spend a massive amount if it isn’t gonna work, but I am willing to spend a fair bit for success. Thanks!
Come on guys!
There are nice Tecsun radios for about 100 dollars that would give you everything to get started
I use a 180 $ SDR Airspy, and I receive the buzzer and other oddities loud and clear. Antenna ? a 35$ loop. Thats'all
One of the main things is the antenna.
Thank you so much for the replies so far! See I was looking at these, ATS25X2 All Band Radio FM/LW/MW/SSB DSP Receiver, but apparently you can’t listen to Russian stuff on them without adding firmware, and again, I know nothing about this stuff! Of course, I’m wanting and willing to learn, but I don’t wanna throw myself into stuff I don’t understand too deep too quick and I just got so confused!
I remember listening to short wave radio on acid, one of the weirdest experiences I've ever had.
Yes, my mate had mad radio set up and we woukd eat shrooms and trip out listening to this stuff lol
LoL it would be a strawberry or shrooms would do the trick, been there a long long time ago in my younger days I'm sure you will know what I mean when I say,, things have never been quite the same since, some doors never really fully shut...LoL..
My God people😂😂😂
If they are pirate, they would have more listeners if they played some decent music.
Probably more popular than grime.
I don't know that Russian heavy metal band was ok
Tchaikovski maybe?
Still better than Dj Spooney and MC Neat.
Noooooooo 'Rachmaninov Piano concerto no2' please show some taste @@emanemanresuresu
That's Hawkwinds seventh album.
Silver machine was cool for it's time I remember the track when it was in the charts, that was quite a while ago LoL...
Fun fact: the hijacking of the buzzer for the passed few years is just some bored gamer dude living in the local area of the transmitter troling with memes, random noises, and drawings of phallic objects. haven't been keeping up with it lately, but he had a discord voice channel where people could join in and troll as well. What was being played in this clip: HEYYEYAAEYAAAEYAEYAA and then the WWV/WWVH time signal lol.
I've heard dude going meow meow and bock bock
The radio I use is the XHDATA D-808 as suggested by @Ringway Manchester. It is great at picking up Apple phone chargers, generic laptop chargers and that dodgy taxi firm down the road.
😄 🤣
President Grant 2 CB, now uk legal with old US 🇺🇸 upper side band, FM ,and MW
you're missing out on Polish Truckers giving Ukrainian war updates....😮😅
My quansheng works better than that. LOL
What antenna are you using?
@@paulsengupta971 AN-80 XHDATA FM/Shortwave Antenna. The unit works as intended but I am surrounded by lots of local EM interference, which is nice.
I think they add more because they like your videos and want to get noticed😂
That's definitely part of it. They're enthusiasts regardless but it's nice to feel noticed. That doesn't even preclude some level of state involvement, some could be "privateers" and also engage in this fun little feedback loop they have going on.
Is like the uncertainty principle: does your monitoring the procedure affect the results?
Yep they know we are listening... those pesky ruskies..
Trying to learn these things on your own is absolutely brutal. While I do have some prior exp with comms (to a small extent), there feels like so much you have to know even to understand the basics or even be allowed into a conversation. Throw in the gatekeeping in the Ham community, and it's a long process. This stuff is fascinating and I am trying to learn more for my own use cases, but it will be a long, long time before I even get to any level of comfort. Hats off to you and videos like this, as I know they take more time/money than people realize.
There's no gatekeeping. We all want you to get your licence and join in! G1YJY. If you have any questions, ask away, there are lots of people on here who would be willing to help.
Tribute to the algorithm gods. I use a RTL-SDR, passive loop, an upconvertor/amp and my desktop PC. I'm planning on using it with my raspberry pi so I can take it up hills. I've not been listening to much this week, I've been teaching myself to solder and getting my new t-deck working.
i tend to agree lewis. It's getting more strange by the day.
That sound on the ticking clock frequency sounds like the siren at a missile silo
It wouldn't be surprising if they are directly related.
I have a suspicion that Russia is working on the resurrection of the soviet Era dead hand M.A.D. nuclear launch system.
There’s probably a couple of teenage Russian nerds sitting with a homemade transmitter laughing at the confusion of the GRU
That first one sounds like "hypnotoad " from Futurama.
All glory to the Hypnotoad!

At 4:40 on 6230kHz you can hear Australian coastal weather forecast from VMW in Wiluna West Australia in the background.
Nice to catch two signals from (one presumably) from both sides of the equator on the same frequency.
Great to hear from you as always Adam
Back in the day, the spectrum from 5.9 to 6.5 MHz was the 49 meters broadcast band. These little signals would have never been heard over the megawatts that singed the airwaves.
@@RingwayManchester Thanks Lewis!
Always watching (and listening!)
@@spaceflight1019 The 49m broadcast band is still there, and still has broadcasts on it. Not as many as in the past though!
@@paulsengupta971 50 years ago, there were many CB radios that had a 6 MHz first IF frequency. As (bad) luck would have it, my EICO Sentinel Pro was one of those. Interference from powerful shortwave stations rendered it unusable in the evening. None of the CB shops could fix it, and it was by accident that I discovered the cure: use an antenna tuner.
The Demco Satellite is another one.
2:03 my yesterday transmission haha

I was way too high to hear that March 22nd buzzer. That was RAD. Kudos to the broadcaster and their machines - went back to listen to it a second time. Might made techno out of it.
As a licensed amateur radio operator, I enjoy checking out the shortwave bands with a NEW Kenwood 890-S transceiver with an 80 meter doublet antenna fed directly by a 600 ohm ladder line. Thanks as always for your presentations in SWL.
Strange signals indeed. My friend Jorma from the opposite side of the street uses an RSP1A connected to a Raspberry Pi, a copper pipe loop indoor antenna with a balanced amplifier (Chavdar Levkov type), a Ten-Tec TT-1254 he built himself 20 years ago, a Roadstar TRA-2350 which he hates, and his venerable National Panasonic GX-500. He also has a Yacht Boy YB-400 but its telescopic antenna is broken. He would love to install his Sony AN-1 active antenna back on the balcony in the spring, but it's challenging because his balcony is glazed and there is no railing to which attach anything. He plans to build a physically short Mini-Whip (tm) style active antenna.
Good to know 👍
The low down ssb signal under the pip at 4:43 is VMW HF Marine broadcast from Western Australia.
It's hard to believe VMW Wiluna and VMC Charleville still broadcast the *really* old slow speed, drum-based radio weather fax service. Sure it's a good backup but there can't be that many people without satellite weather of some sort these days. The recording just happened to be during the voice only minutes. Amazing it still could be heard in the UK under that considering the output power is a modest 1kW.
I use Tecsun PL-660 and I listen to all these signals on the built-in telescopic antenna
maybe the Pirate Rave stations have just gone extremely experimental?
The buzzer in the first minute sounds like a Jacob’s Ladder arcing. It’s different in that it trails off
The HF bands are full of weird stuff and it is increasing. That there may be method behind the madness is very concernng as it suggests that things may be coming to a head ?
Psyop / distraction / noise
But it’s interesting to folllow.
Its an alien countdown! 👽
The drop reminds me of the sound of a checkout scanner.
with these huge flares on the sun , I can't hear anything. last few days have been horrid ...
Is there something specific i can read about sun fluxes and their "influance" in radio?
Lol, everywhere, every day... The curse of shortwave.
@@ThisIsMyNewAliasTry googling "solar flare" or "coronal mass ejection" with "ionospheric propagation" and see what pops up.
@user-gb8jp8ew6z I replied buy putting some resources, but someone or YT erased them. I don't know why this is happening.
It's only gonna get worse...
just a few hours after the change from ticking to the alarm sound a russian missle entered polish airspace quite a coincidence
Just a few hours after the change from ticking to the alarm sound my dog "Gorbachev" farted in my airspace - also quite a coincidence!
The pip / drop over a noise sounds like it does because there is an audio limiter in line. So the background is say 90% level, and then the drop comes in at 200%, so the whole thing "ducks" the audio down to make the drop to be 90%, which makes the background appear to go away. A longer rise time means that after the drop stops, it takes a second for it to slowly get back to 90% background noise. This often happens when you have both a compressor and a limiter on the same audio chain, the compressor is bringing up EVERYTHING including the background, and then the limiter is chopping it down for the loudest sound.
For these channels, they all appear to be from the same source / group. If indeed attached in any way to the far right groups, this may be somewhat of an indication of more internal strife within Russia itself. That they feel they can broadcast this many channels with impunity says a whole lot.
i support your theory's
you couldn't send anything of this in europe without police showing up.
Interesting as always.
The voice in the background of the 'drop' at 6230 is actually quite a catch. It's the weather station for Australia West, from Wiluna, Western Australia. I just checked the frequency right now and Australia is there right now. I am subscribed to a list called the ILG list, from a guy in Germany who professionally monitors the bands. It's interesting that 6229.6 is given as one of the frequencies for ALE, one of the Nato/US Shortwave systems. Could these noises affect the ALE transmissions? Before I put my tin foil hat on, I should say that 6230 is also one of the frequencies for 'Sound Of Hope' radio, run by the Falun Gong religious movement, which beams into China all across the dial, and is frequently subject to Chinese jamming. I did find something interesting nearby on 6218. It's a station playing some kind of Slavic-sounding music, using Upper-Side Band which is always odd to find for a music station. My ILG list has that down as 'Anti Russian War Radio' from Kviv. I'm near London and in terms of equipment, I use an Airspy Discovery SDR and I've got a vertical antenna about 11m tall, leaning on my leylandii trees. It's basically 0.5mm enamelled copper wire, spiralled around a fibreglass pole. Anyone getting started with this kind of thing might want to look at making their own common-mode chokes and having an earth rod near the antenna, especially if they live in a built up area. I've recently been plagued by someone nearby who I think is using Ethernet over Power Line. Turns their whole house into a noise broadcasting system! Chokes can reduce the noise somewhat, but it wont go away completely. Keep up the good work.
Great video, Lewis...👍
6911 is really creepy. Been monitoring that on WebSDR. Cheers from US.
Are you on the University of Twente SDR?
I have just received my Kenwood R1000, just getting into it
Lots of intrigue in the great empire of the air... great vid again!
0:20 Sounds like someone's Playing with A Jacob's Ladder or has Audio Sampled one and is looping
Thank You for the great content. Your getting so popular perhaps they are doing for your channel 😂
The first "signal" reminds me of the sparking of a tesla coil or a high voltage switch that failed to open completely.
7:24 is a nostalgic throwback to the Gongs and Chimes.
An Icom IC-718 into an inverted L with a remote tuner at the vertical base, 10 radials under the horizontal section. I monitor the HFGCS frequencies quite a lot.
PIP DROP CLEAR DROP, my new dance moves for 2024.
Im on a Grundig Satellit 650 for SW, a Ericsson P500 for 6m and a Yaesu ft8800 for vhf/uhf :D
Using an RSP1A - with 20m "random" wire in a 4:1 unun....
Wow cool share Thanks.
I'm ready to have my skin crawl!!! I think because I don't know a damn thing about shortwave and I'm dumb, this is why it gives me the willies!
You are not dumb. There is so much to all this and Ringway Manchester does a great job explaining it.
@@yardsale781 you are very right!
I find it very fascinating
Alot of this stems from the beginning of the “ cold war “ spy stuff and such…
2:37 - этот качающийся тон применяли правительство ссср для глушения радиовещательных станций BBC на своей территории, чтобы население не могло слышать то, что скрывала тотальная цензура.
Translation, This swinging tone was used by the USSR government to jam BBC broadcasting stations on its territory so that the population could not hear what total censorship was hiding.
and now we in Europe just use firewall so we dont see any Russian programe etc...
how the times had changed....cant believe what happened to Europe in short 10 or 20 years
If that was the case would it not block the signal in all territories it encounters?
I remember well the jamming that went on during the Cold War - not just jamming but propaganda as well, I remember receiving a propaganda broadcast from the USSR which was actually sent on RTTY, I wish I still had the printout from my old Creed 7B it was a good rant!
@@MartinPGrindrod
I get these signals in the united states during the night. I live outside of Chicago to give contrast of where I am in the US. I get it on both my RTL-SDR V4 and my Sangean ATS909X2 get it clearly. I can't hear it on AM, I have to set both to USB to hear them.
Signal test for nuklear war
@ragheadand420roll how's that?
sounds like a tesla coil.
"Hell March" starts playing.
I needed this comment@@markgomersbach9265
Its a jacobs ladder
Your right it does well spotted, I knew I heard it somewhere before just couldn't place where,, good call..
@@alphadog6970yep could be that allso...
I have a Hallicrafters Model SC-38C that I acquired last year. I still have to get it working, though.
I have programmed all the frequencies into my SDR doftware, SDR Console. I am using SDRPlay RSP1A. I can hear the pips sometimes, but usually not here in Florida lately. I used the KiwiSDR out of the Netherlands, to hear them. I also use Tecsun radios, PL680, 990x, and 368. I also have an old Sangean ATS 909. I'll keep listening!
I have a Zenith TransOceanic 7000.
I always wanted one after seeing them advertised in my Dad's Readers Digest in the 1970's. I finally went daft and got one from a charity shop in the U.S.A. £150 plus carriage of £90.
I had to replace two transistors and soon after the rotary dial mechanism gave up. The nylon cog had some broken teeth but luckily I was able to change it for the other identical end. It works well.
I suffered broadband QRM for years but when they went to fibre optic cable on January 9th the noise has gone.
G4GHB.
I assumed the noise on the buzzer was people on the same frequency trying to jam it, around two weeks ago Rammstein - stein um stein playing during the buzzer
It seems that people are realy bad at ridles now.
There is certain military base in Germany that has such name as the group.
What did you say was the name of the song?
You do know what that means?
It seems it is a russian transmition and they are a bit pissed off...
My radio of choice for shortwave listening is the SDRPlay RSP1A, with a weatherproofed Deshibo GA800 loop antenna up in a mast, a separate Bias-T that supplies voltage from a transformer power supply to the antenna (I prefer it over the one that came with the antenna, because it supplies 9V to the antenna straight through and not through a booster circuitry), and a common mode filter just before the radio. Between all these is a run of M&P HyperFlex 5 cables to screen out any local interference. The end result is a resilient little bunch of equipment that picks up these oddball signals like a charm. Also, as Russia happens to be our next door neighbor, that also helps picking up these signals.
That first one almost sounds like 50 cycle hum. It sounds like there's an automatic gain control bringing it up from the noise floor, as evident by the pip silencing it briefly each time. The drone could be the same hum, just that the pip had gone silent for a while.
messages within messages...
Sounds like some type of OTH radar systems with different phases and carriers or feed signals. The songs are probably pirates and the harmonics are stepping on the other signals.
Got a USB signal on 6910kHz with the clock tonight (23rd) and music/talking under the pip/drop on 6931kHz, some very strange signals about! Receivers are AOR AR5000A +3 and Elad FDM-S3 SDR, antennas are Wellbrook loop and Buschcomm BBA100V located in Gloucestershire. Loads of 49m band pirates on as well.
I enjoy listening to shortwave on my old Hallicrafters S 20R Sky Champion. Yes, it still works perfectly and is one of the few units that is unmolested. I've been listening to Cuban radio a lot recently.
Icom mk2 and a yaesu 991a .. to be honest I follow up the frequencies you display to see how I get them… get all the pips and buzzers plus clock
I sent you a email about a wierd frequency just like that, just waiting for responses.
Good luck never replies
I get hundreds a week Barry, you’ll forgive me if it takes a while!
@@barrybradfordlocksport he did lol 😂
The first one sounds like an encrypted data connection because of the modulation sweep.. The signals no longer available will probably be pirate.
I use an Airspy HF+ and a YouLoop antenna. I have plans for a loop on the ground (actually just below the grass) with a preamp.
I have hopes that this will improve my ability to detect these oddities.
Hello there,
Off topic question
I have a hytera ap515lf analogue radio and a radioditty GD-73.
The radioditty I set up on my pc to match the 16 pmr446 Channels. The hytera is out of the box. But should also cover the 16 channels.
Why is it that I can only receive and transmit with eachother on the first eight channels, but not the other eight (9-16).
Does anyone know and can help me with that ?
Cheers
The dead hand has been reactivated!
I own no radio. Really enjoy the channel . And Short Wave Radios have always cought my attention but have never had the know how or funds to invest in things
The frst one sounded like a Jacob's Ladder ;)
hmmmmm you picked up my heartbeat for a min there
I use a Yaesu FT-710. I've haven't been scanning the bands this week.. just working FT8.
Heard the single narrow band continuous carrier (2:56) on the 80m phone band USA Sunday morning US-MDT. 😮
73…
The "Buzzer" is a great source of consternation all the way to Hawaii. I have heard it for decades any band
5838khz. That's the sound of a Jacobs Ladder.
I started my sw listening with an Yaesu FRG7700 and a long wire, then in 1989 I had an Icom IC-R9000 and two huge 300 ft + long wire antennas and a tuner this was at my parents house, I bought my own house in 1994 and no room for long wires so I sold the Icom, I run a Yaesu FT991 now and a vertical not ideal but it works, the 80s and 90s were halcyon days for swl
I love how all this weirdness just keeps coming. That first one could be sampled for dubstep.
Great video Lewis, I'm copying the ticking clock, both new Pip frequencies and the signal on 5838 kHz. 73
Thanks Clint!
G'day m8. I think it would be nice to have the frequencies displayed across the top or bottom. Across the top would probably be best as that would not be troubled by pausing TY. I could then get an idea of the bandwidths. Also to have the tuning cursor displayed so I would know what the spectral pattern looks like. I'm in Australia, at very poor location, and I need to do a lot of listening to pick up a speck of the signals you're speaking about. Just a thought m8. I appreciate your work no end. 👍😃
The frequencies are displayed? Not sure what you mean. Cheers!
@@RingwayManchesterSorry I meant as part of the spectrum waterfall display, so you know what part of the band you're viewing, the bandwidth of the displayed signals etc. If there is more than one signal displayed I've no idea which one I'm listening to. Just a bit more interesting info, that's all I'm suggesting. I've follow you around for quite a while now and greatly appreciate the info you give. If you're using SDR++ or GQRX you will see between the two display blocks, field strength and waterfall, a horizontal display of the frequencies.
That's the sort of thing I'm trying to describe.
If I can be of any assistance to you just let me know. I hope that is clear enough, it looks like a mess to me. Keep well m8. 🙂
I have heard that pip sound somewhere before! Possibly from a carrier control point like what was used to show that all was clear during the cold war. These units were in police stations and local post offices etc!
Brilliant
LMFAO the song it was playing is the He-man version of the 4 non Blondies song "what's going on" i just happened to be listening to it the other day.😅 2:16
It's an ancient meme from the Something Awful forums circa 2002.
First one sounds very much like a high voltage electric arc.
I use a ic7300. Do you have a way to search freqs or do you just manually spin the VFO?
I have Tecsun PL -660 which I bought May of last year and Tucson PL - 880.
@7:25 mins, sounds like something dangerous has escaped
The ticking sounds like a metronome. And the bugle kinda sounds like its going to that beat.
Hello all, i get that the vertical traces are broadcasts on a frequency but what are the horizontal lines, lightning strikes ?
Quite often yes.
I like the first one. Going to have to sample that one
Hello..! Is Tecsun PL-360 good for listening on a budget? Thank You.
What is your antenna setup ??? (looks like it performs very well).. I Would like to construct the same .. If not too Expensive, or overly complex in construction..
Tecsun PL-600 and wire antenna.
Hey Lewis check out 6880 and 6900 khz. Possibly found some new markers. I can hear them faintly on my SDR here in Florida, they are both quite loud on Univ of Twente SDR. If you've already logged these, disregard. Thanks!
7:05 ticking clock to sirens... 🤔
2:56 I'd just be a bit weary of empty carriers. I looked just now on two SDRs and it's not there at 4635 now. What I do know is a simple carrier wave can be caused by local oscillations to the receiver, or even mixing stages in the radio receiver itself. They're often called birdies. When I'm scanning for interesting signals, I generally just ignore an empty carrier wave for this reason. They're often not "real" signals.
Lots of people heard the 2 carrier examples. On web SDR’s across Europe and the states and I heard it on my radio at home
@@RingwayManchester aha OK. Fair enough.
Cultural context: You Brits call it a "drop." I may be wrong, but I think English speakers in the USA would call it a "beep." Anyone else? (BTW: Go CITY!!!}
RSPdx and RTL V4, with a discone. You'd be surprised what I can pick up with that
Fantastic channel. I haven't a clue about anything SW related. Everything i do understand is largely down to you.
Is it possible terrorists could use these marker channels to co-ordinate an attack like the one at the weekend?
I have an ancient Radio Shack DX-300 that I used to enjoy quite a bit, but there doesn't seem to be much going on at all these days.
I have AN SDRPlay and I use sdr console .That has a memory bank and all the ones you mention are programmed into it . I listen occasionaly but I do hear most of them.
About 6911khz - already i received: clock, 1 air horn looped, 3 airhorns in the same time looped, trumpet, russian anthem in loop, this alarm signal what you showed here and only one time (maybe transmitted 2 min) drop like on another pirate "new pips"
Just added an ELAD FDM-DUO for non ham listening
The software is awesome
I am very interested in getting involved in shortwave radio can you recommend a setup or educational material on this topic. Thank you for the videos fascinating
Do you know how these signals are actually being used? Perhaps HQ to field data transmissions? Any idea what kind of equipment/systems the signals being sent to?
Using a flex 6600 and yaesu ftdx101mp. The buzzer is weak, but still Audible in northern usa.6230 is not always open, but have heard it.
