The 'Ticking Clock' was the Russians answer to propaganda during the siege of Stalingrad, the message which said (Every 6 seconds a German soldier dies in Stalingrad) and the ticking repeated itself all day.
It was Leningrad not Stalingrad... was known as the beating heart of Leningrad
Many thanks Troutie, Could it be said that the same propaganda happened in the German massacre of Stalingrad? Albeit intense cold ?@@troutie7726
You have propaganda, Russia has killing nazis. Different goals, different ways.
@@troutie7726 nope - in Leningrad, the metronome was used to warn of the air raid. In Stalingrad, it was used for propaganda against German troops.
@@coyoteranger - Yep. I recommend the book "The 900 Days: The Siege Of Leningrad" for anyone feeling sorry for themselves. Leningrad's broadcast would have been "Every second a bunch of citizens of Leningrad starve to death at which point some others don't because they ate the ones who did." Seriously, they were the healthy looking ones still walking around.
The ticking has now turned into a loop of an air raid alarm. I don't think it will get to the top of the music charts over here, but I'm sure someone will try dancing to it
Probably a dancing bear😂
Doesn't "War Pigs" start with an air raid siren?
Sounds like a banger
Sample it, and add a beat.
@@wisteela ....Yeah..mix in the cement mixer.....drop the car alarm...
6911KHz had air raid sirens, just a few minutes ago. Now it's back to the ticking clock.
Back to Air Raid Right now 😮
That’s unnerving
hearing air raid sirens at 21:11 utc
🤷 could be everything including trolls
@@lymskiUK just the usual Ukraine-Russia radio war. 🙄
The ticking clock sounds like the metronome that was broadcast in Leningrad during the seige aka the Heartbeat of Leningrad. Faster meant an air raid, slower meant things were safe.
гениальное решение
@nopzhki-busha *Good evening Sir, I’m David, an American Radio Signal’s enthusiast, and I was hoping you would be so kind as to explain how you came to learn about this interesting Historical WW2 Signals Topic?? ..Or, where you originally heard about this interesting explanation?? ..ie “The ticking clock sounds like the Metronome that was broadcast during the siege-aka the heartbeat of Leningrad. Faster meant an air raid, slower meant things were safe.” ..I would very much like to know the origins of your interesting comments. Thank You in advance, “Bush Legs” ~ David

Brilliant, Lewis! I would say that, with the quality and choice of topics you cover in these videos, you have probably been single-handedly responsible for lots of folks getting into radio hobby. Best of all, it's not just content geared toward ham radio nerds (like me). There's also plenty that any shortwave, longwave, vhf, or uhf listener can get into, It's a great reminder of just how vast and varied radio listening can be - no transmission necessary. Cheers! 🙂
"no transmission necessary" Very true, I started in 1978 as a Short Wave listing station BRS41712 and gave QSL reports to the big transmitters like Voice of America, Canada Broadcasting Corporation and a few more. Many early nights with four valve receivers keeping me warm burning through my Dads electricity. Reporting signal levels when transmitters change antennas to beam to another continent.
Later went up to VHF satellites and tracked Noaa, Meterosat and the Russian space station with Richard G8NDD. Then down to LF to hear Subs with moderate success moved on to tracking Pirate stations then Got my G8 licence and went on the air, bounced signals of the moon etc did the clubs Direction finding events with G8UZZ which was fun and back to listening for Slow scan TV, RTTY (news wire)giving my Dad the news from Reuters and AP before the BBC and the newspapers, via three Creed teleprinters (still have them). Weather satellites gave me a picture of the Earth via two Muirhead weather fax machines. If I added up the weight of all my kit it would be several hundred Kg,
So your observation " listening reminds us that it can and is more fun than transmitting" is spot on and with SDR and Lewis's help a hoppy you can take anywhere without a 30 foot tower.
I am expecting the 'Woodpecker back any time soon'. Best G8WOF
Back in the 70s I used to listen to American Forces Network (Germany) from my bedroom in Scunthorpe on Long Wave. It was like a peek into a different world. Wolfman Jack and the occasional episode of The Shadow (I could only pick it up at night, but before midnight UTC - rarely it propagated in the hours up to dawn - from memory, and that's something like 45 years ago)
I wish there was more to hear on long wave. All I get where I live is the morse ID from the local airport non-directional beacon. It's very spooky but gets old after a few minutes.
He at least got me to the point i added a Malahit DSP to my radio collection 😁👍
Louis got me hooked bigtime!
I have this, 6930 USB for the past 3 days just after sunset. I am in Connecticut USA. Several others on the East Coast are hearing it. Thanks for all your videos.
Greetings Fren.... New London saying HI.
Be well 🙏
All 3 of the latest Pips are loud and clear in Denmark
The buzzer too, but miss “The Horn” at 4770
4:09 - Sounds like an incoming ring tone on an old satelite phone. My old boss use to have one back in the 90's. I can't remember the make.
also sounds like the call signal of my old probably not legal, and long since unplugged and chucked in a box UHF 'long range' cordless POT port telephone I had linked to my parents house until we got a phone at our new house.
Iridium?
encrypted transmissions spread over several frequencies. the ones that sound like a steady and repeating pulse seems like a timing signal. the steady "noise" on other frequencies (looks like static or a jamming signal) is the carrier of the encoded information. even the type of antenna used can add to the security of the signal, as having the appropriate antenna type to pick up the transmission is necessary, such as forcing a vertical or horizontal polarity using special reflector configurations.
Yes , the ptb are using longitudinal waves to attack me .
No joke
I sent you a message on the twitters about 6911kHz. It surprised me to find it there. Listening via everyone’s favorite webSDR out of The Netherlands. Keep up the awesome work!
Will check that :)
I sent you a message on 6911kHz about Twitter
And i sent you a 6911 on Twitter's kHz about a message.
And i sent you 6911 khz on a twitter message
i don't know nothing about this. maybe tht's why i find it so scary
So you know something if you don't know nothing? 🤔
@@charliefrharper congrats mate: you just corrected a non english speaking guy!! attaboy!
@ChristophDeClercq-mj1pk wasn't meant as an offense.
Native speaking people are doing the exact same thing, but I never understood why.
English is not my first language as well, so I am far from perfect also ☺️
@@ChristophDeClercq-mj1pkYou said a double negative. "Don't know nothing" We English speakers find them fascinating, like a little puzzle to solve. Brain candy.
You can say either "I know nothing" or "I don't know anything" to be correct. But double negatives are actually used on purpose by some to convey informality or a disregard for rules. Like street language, or folksy rural talk.
Good grief this is not English class
Update!! 6911 has began broadcasting the Russian anthem after hearing what was chime bells
That Military Signal is the countdown to WWE Wrestlemania where Putin will make the Grand Entrance while The Final Countdown is playing in the background for WWE United States Champion

So, some notes about the channel markers. As mentioned on the previous video on these, I found a total of 6 of these, all pipping at the same frequency and cadence and seemingly the ones I could see together were synchronised. The frequencies are 5780, 5838, 6218, 6230, 6402, 6930. Best received in Northern Europe I've found. Finland/Sweden for example.
Very specifically, if you get a strong signal reception, you will hear that the background noise is actually being transmitted with the pip. Which would make me suspect they're being retransmitted (the noise being the background noise rising from a slow AGC on the receiver). Also note that the width of this noise seems to be a pretty much identical to a 3khz voice channel. Suggesting all of these are also designed to carry voice or at the very least are being transmitted on a standard voice USB radio. Maybe the plan is the same voice at all these frequencies to make it harder to jam them all perhaps?
V2k ? I am a victim of longitudinal waves.
4:34 DTMF tones. Reminds me of a string of DTMF tones used on modified pocket DTMF dialers that were used in the United States back in the 1980s and 1990 to make free telephone calls from payphones. The modified dialers were known as "Red Boxes"
Well, it IS probably a modem, I'd imagine that's just its idle sound. No way to know for sure because it seems like nobody picked up something that wasn't that idle tone.
@@Cobalt985 I used to use them in the UK as part of the Phreakers scene. Free calls to the USA
Haha yep I got my dialer at radio shack and the mghz crystal from a mouser electronics catalog.
The concept was called 'phreaking' or 'blue-boxing'.
Cheese boxes!
That fast paced phone beep struck a chord. It reminded me of how quickly my dog moves when he's got the runs.
the "phone" signal that you show starting @ 4:00 has numerical info in it.... the length of each tone is different (as in seven pulses in one tone, then 5 pulses in the next, then 6, etc) AND the length of time between each tone varies too - it's quite easy to see the pattern on screen....
THIS is the info that is being transmitted... well.. SOME of the info
Back in military college we take Countdown Clocks 101. The first lesson is it’s probably best to not let your enemy know your plans via countdown clocks.
Nice one Lewis , more of these to go into the memories on my SDR Console radio program for My SDRplay.
6911 KhZ now is doing a siren sound. The ticking/racket has been replaced.
6911 playing the anthem in loop
This is wild. My dad used to have a Ham radio. He was radio operator on a submarine
I expected you to reference the counting down and maybe offer some theory on it to be fair....
How am I just finding this channel. I love this stuff
Quality Lewis, really good series to do.
THE FINAL COUNTDOWN! 🎵🎵
Fascinating as always.
Just now an air raid siren is sounding on 6911 USB. Erie sound!
GGMorse :)
I wonder if it's because of what's going on in Belgorod maybe?
Cheers Lewis another Great video
I don’t understand anything, but I find it extremely interesting. I also just found your channel now I guess I’m going to learn.😂
Nice video, thank you! I verified the signals during watching the video: Most of them are good to hear with R5 S7-8 here in the west of Germany. I use a RSPdx and a Moonraker Scanking discone 0.05-2000 MHz.
Sounds like the old hardware up and active tones that inform other facilities that they are still running without interference and all is well.
Yeah, you can spend days trying to analyze what strange signals people have heard and I have heard just some crazy sounding stuff. Thanks for the video.
Big ups from Texas.
RCV/Sevastopol (Russian Navy) is active in the 80 meter band from 17:00 UTC most evenings. Hand sent CW broadcasts on 3797 khz, often lasting over an hour.
russian navy fled Sevastopol :)
Last day I was listening to that Stalingrad Clock, I thought that someone was hitting a stick or wood in a room with Echo
If I may ask, what makes you think it's a ''countdown'' ?
the "phone dialer" certainly sounds like DTMF of the same number repeated several times but as of time of typing this i hear nothing on 6819!
Do the buzzers always sound like an old dot matrix printer?
Also, is it possible that some of these pips are time markers for some sort of image data that just looks like static in the waterfall?
Great video with some Interesting content makes you think what it's all about. Thanks for sharing.
The "Tennis Racket" Sounds more like a slow measure metronome
great video !!!!!!! as usual
Stations such as this one may be a component of the Perimeter system, also known as "Dead Hand". If these signals are interrupted, a signal is received by Perimeter which adds to its logic in determining if a nuclear strike has occurred on Soviet ^h^h^h^h^h^h Russian soil.
My point is that the sudden emergence of these signals may be a preparatory addition to Perimeter, adding sensors and thus redundancy to a very very dangerous automated counter strike system. This signal may exist only to be extinguished by enemy action and give the alarm for Russian action.
Maybe just a way to monitor for internal issues within Russia there were protests in Siberia some months ago and also the current ongoing "Free Russia Legion" actions inside of Russia, taking over border towns and military bases. They have many internal risks.
So cut the power to it, got it.
The "Katyusha" music sounds like a "Fallout Moscow" soundtrack.
Don’t worry about it it’s messages from my home planet we don’t have much to talk about.
Count down to world peace. 🤞
Maybe 🙏
We are at least seven years and one Rapture away from world peace.
Hope it's not a countdown to the big red button 😬 😅
I reckon they wouldn't podcast something like that on some easily accessible radio-frequency. What would be the purpose?
At frequencies 5780 kHz, 5838 kHz, 6218 kHz, 6230 kHz, 6402 kHz and 6930 kHz, the marker has been changed!
Given how advanced our technology is at filtering out static and noise to produce a clean signal, I really have to wonder why those signals have so much static and noise in them. Honestly, it makes me thing that the static and noise is actually deliberately injected into the signal and is a cover for hiding transmission data under a disguise of what would have been static and noise for older systems from decades ago. With moderate transmission tech, there really isn't a reason most countries should be having so much static and noise in their transmission. It just seems like one of those mind game things, where someone pretends something is a technical problem in order to hide something else they are doing on purpose.
Improve your knowledge
Wow, easily spotted Russian agitator much? Not doing a very good job at hiding and being subtle are you? If that kind of unprofessional display is what we should expect from Russian operatives, then I guess we could assume that they would also cheep out on their radio systems... but then why would they cheep out on their radio systems when they do have decades of experience in making and improving those systems AND have invested reasons to use subtle tricks. Didn't even do a good job hiding your Russian origins in your profile. That completely defeats the purpose of counter intelligence and preforming psy-ops against a rival nations civilian population, if you can be so easily spotted and ratted out. Your commander should fire you for neglect.
@@brickbunny9686 omg. Ukrainians also use Cyrillic letter, okay? If text has ї, і and є it's ukrainian
Looks like are really deep in conspiracy theories
The only reason to say something like "Improve your knowledge" in the current conversation is to agitate. If you didn't want to be called out, you shouldn't have commented in the first place. You communist dictator types can't handle the smallest bit of criticism. The truth of anything scares you. You rely on lies, brute force and deceptive shame/guilt/fear head games for power. So of course you would reply with such an opening comment and then react with "OMG Conspiracy theorist," when you get caught.
If you didn't want to be called out, you shouldn't have opened up with an insulting first comment. What Ukrainian would even want to be offensive like that, especially when Americans are supplying them with weapons to defend against Russia's invasion of the Ukrainian country? Communist regimes threw out history have shown they can't handle the smallest bit of criticism and and go out of there way to suppress anyone who says anything that remotely criticizes them. The truth always terrifies communist, so of course "Conspiracy theorist" is another one of those shame/guilt/fear head games communist play.
Do you have a video of all of your equipment. I thinking of getting into this hobby
If I knew, I've forgotten.... what type of SDR are you using and what software? Just interested. I use an SDRPlay RSP1a and SDRUno software, myself.
What kind of radio is this that can graph the signals and play them live so cleanly?
You bloody genius! Thank you very much

Thanks so much!
Tell’s ET not to land in Russia they are busy with the special military operations.
Tuned into the Pip while watching this.....keep hearing Korean/Cantonese I think on and off in background.
I enjoyed the Yaessu FTdx9000 you had in your thumbnail. I wanted one of those for so long. Actually got too operate one at W1AW a few times.
On to a relavent comment to the video - the concept of numbers stations fascinates me. I'm glad to have found your channel and have been enjoying your content. And not just the number station related
good to hear your scanning the short circuit, great stuff this!!
my tinfoil hat stopped working xD
Is it still in warranty?
Remove the battery, wait one minute, then reinsert the battery while holding down the "up" and "down" buttons.
Dead man switch , When the signal stops , Missiles launch ...
Nahhh
Dead man’s switch… each listening facility listens for two different transmissions. There are also almost imperceptible changes in frequency which allow the listening facility to verify the authenticity of the transmission. If both signals (that the facility is currently listening to) go offline or the signal is incorrect, launch sequence is automatically initiated.
No evidence for that. Just think how unreliable HF would be for that purpose
The rotary one sounds like a 1970's remote transmitter controller that was on a uhf link to the FM broadcast transmitter on the mountain. It had a rotary phone dial, and dialing in codes would allow us to take remote readings on the transmitter and the engineer could adjust things too.
One can only hope it has something to do with Westminster.
Where is Jeff Goldblum to save us.
Another good one Lewis cheers.
Do you have a burnable or completely deleteable account?
Or setup for super serious proper encryption.

Fantastic video as always mate thank you. What app do you use for decoding morse? I haven't learned it yet lol. 73's

Use radio in any war scenario very important role in case of satellites go down
Thanks Lewis great video 🙂👍
Its scary of what they were doing with number stations heck they could been using them for NUCLEAR WEAPONS OR LAUNCH CODES
may be i was inattentive.. which signal is counting down?
Cool vids thanks for posting.
Hey the 6322kHZ vid isn’t in the desc and I’d like to watch it, can you please provide me with the link, thanks!
I just don't understand the point. Why continuously broadcast a beep? Like I really don't know. I'm sure there is a purpose but I don't know what it is but would like someone to tell me.
I’ve heard they’re a part of the Dead Man’s hand system Russia has
Sometimes the low-tech way is the best way. When the shit hits the fan, cell phone towers and whatnot may not be all that functional. But UHF, etc would still work as long as you had some sort of electricity. At least that's my understanding
Once that beep is lost, there's a reasonable to high possibility that the place broadcasting it is no more.
And if Moscow has stopped to produce the signal, the nukes would be sent flying. Deadman's switch, to put it simply.
Thanks. XPB was clear as a bell earlier, Vlad could've been in the room. I wonder what the transmitter power is.
Hello all, anyone on 4724kHz USB last night around 22UTC? Seemed like an american broadcast, military like, starting with "This is Radiator".. then some letters and numbers like "juliet, romeo, three, three, tango, lima......" and so on, after that the voice said "I will repeat, standby" (male voice, robotic type). It was on air for about a half hour, good reception in Romania, could anyone enlighten me what type of transmission it is? Thanks! And sorry for my mediocre english :)
That sounds like an EAM
It seemed like multiple mesages adressed to multiple recipients as I remember. Recipients were coded by strings of number/letters, than the word "standby" and after that a long "message" also encoded. Some messages were ended by the word "out" but other messages were repeated after the "I will repeat" message or something like that. It was complex, I will look for a way to record it. Now I'm receiving on Tecsun pl660 hooked to a longwire antenna about 30 yards long.@@RingwayManchester
After all these years i cannot believe the Russians still love spreading paranoia with random noises, love it 😂…thanks for the video Lewis.
Aliens. Definitely aliens.
Trisolarians.
How you catch those signals and how you locate them? 😮🤔
what program did you use to decode the morse at 7:40 ish? that seems a very useful tool and alot more accurate than the tools ive found over the years

This is so lit. Got a GA-800 going to experiment with it this weekend. Thanks for the inspiration 🙏🏾❤️
Enjoy it man
I gave up the guitar and looking for a new hobby.
Great video, again. I either didn't listen closely enough, but I missed what this is counting down to.
I’ll let you know when it ends
@@RingwayManchester I hope you can. The signals definitely seem to be marking time, but I don't see how the direction is discerned.
Is there an estimation for when it ends? @@RingwayManchester
@@JustAGuyYaKnow42 nope, just pirates and trolls.
Russian military suspended all comms on broad band at the end of 2022.
From 2023 to now it's only "I'm on air/active" check up signals for redundancy sake.
Loudspeakers in Stalingrad were mainly used by army units of the "Main Political Directorate" of Workers' and Peasants' Red Army (Главпур РККА), and NKVD too.
It’s the countdowns until the new Top-40 hits station starts broadcasting on the frequency! (U.S. Broadcasters would sometimes do that when format shifts would happen at a station but they weren’t ready for launch yet but still wanted to maintain signal on the frequency. Or for publicity. Mostly the latter I think. Just like these.)
You've gotta wonder if the US military has started monitor amateur forums for these signals at this point!
BLAST OFF!!
The newer pip on 5780khz sounds like a heart monitor beep 😅
FAV22 to my knowledge, is a french cw training station, transmitting increased speeds over the day.
is this still counting down? did it perhaps have somthing to do with what just happened in moscow ?
That phone signal sounds identical to the noise made when dropping a quarter in a payphone. That's 5 tones that all represent 5 cents each to the trunk/phone service.
I love these videos. I found your channel only a few months ago. I was in the royal corps of signals as a cadet and always wanted a C.B radio. If I wanted to get involved in SW monitoring what would be the best budget friendly device for someone with limited time wanting to dip their toe in please guys?
Tecsun pl990 is a great radio :)
Getting a SDR device such as a RSP1a is a fairly low cost and extremely flexible introduction to listening to the whole radio spectrum.
