I just discovered I can listen to my city PD on my BaoFeng by accident.

Most exciting thing so far: 3 teens jumping over fences in backyards taking photos before hopping into the next yard.

All three are only described as having "Man Buns."

>>140426443

Mayberry is a known callsign apparently and USAF doesn't say mayday mayday when going down and the National Guard has a different channel apparently the formatting is right also

doesn't fucking matter really but yeah..

>>140426922

the dudes saying this said he heard it on his home radio not the website

>>140427044
I hear you there's just no way he is saying 3 syllables (May-Ber-ry) instead of 2 (Mayday). He's saying two syllables. There's no American slur that bad. Especially since he pronounces everything else pretty clearly.

>>140427489
lol that one was pretty legendary

>>140426527
I'm pretty sure there's some policy to keep the channels busy with ominous broadcasts(hence all the bogus threads here) so that any adversaries listening won't be startled for the sudden amount of traffic that would result from an actual emergency.

>>140427454

i know i hear it also but the broadcast were listening was recorded in the netherlands and some dude in like Alabama or someshit prolly has a better recording to go off of the Bery could easily turn into day after bouncing off the egde of space i assume

>>140427489
Wait what are you fucking serious

>>140427044
>>140427454
Also to clarify I'm not suggesting they are saying Mayday in the traditional sense. There are HH-60G Pave Hawk Search & Rescue aircraft right there in Tucson as Davis-Monthan, so no need to ask Andrews AFB or anywhere else for help with a downed aircraft.

>>140425836
they're also claiming the message came about 30min before the crash. The guy must have been having a lot of trouble.

I feel like if a national guardsman was going down, he'd still be able to get on the AFs channels, they'd need to know that sort of thing so they can recover the jet

either way its not nuking norks so i dont give a fuck, that pilot is prolly alive and is gonna eat shit if its his fault

>>140427912
yeah he's pretty serious, somebody probably went to the websdr receivers location and transmitted it

>Triggered by people not charging a toll to use their sidewalks.

How else am I to maintain a high quality sidewalk that attracts foot traffic and increases my revenue?

>>140427893
Fair enough but sounds like Larping by them without a recording. Scrambling over distance yes, compressing syllables please prove it to me.

>>140426575
Its okay. They're just showing their newfaggotry. Skyking threads have been around longer than nu/pol/.

Assuming I buy only 1 of either: up-converter for $50 or the Sony SSB radio for $50, what's the better choice?

The only way I can see the MOAB attack being on this channel is if it was dropped by a B2.

>>140430717
i hear nothing
did the said plane drop its load?

Neat. 2 drunk girls at a bar I sometimes go to just stabbed each other according to my local police on my Baofeng.

Was anyone here at the CPD threads?

>>140432038

It looks like it would have been dropped by a B2.

Plausible, if it needed a go word to do it.

>>140433493
The MOAB we dropped when it said "Gundam Drop" was from a C-130, it was probably announced because we rarely drop MOAB's so it was probably a well known and big operation

these are the dumbest un-happening threads every single fucking time

Don't worry too much. Honestly, just look over basic regulations, operating procedures, and simple electrical rules, and you're golden. Here's a tip. When you pass, take the next test. Often times it will be free anyway. If you pass, welcome to the realm of General. If not, not like you lost anything.

We have over 1,000 F-16s sitting in mothballs alone. Takes 48 hours at Davis-Mothan Airbase to take one out of long term storage and get it in the air again.

Not everything at DMAFB is set for scrap. Many birds are just in storage and in the event of a war can be returned to service quickly. (There's 88 B-52Hs there in case we need to go Dr. Strangelove.)

Yeah, sadly it's not as interesting for people anymore with the advent of cell phones and internet. Hell, preppers mainly grab gear and do nothing with it at all, just let it sit until something happens. At least you're learning. Just make sure to put it into practice.

any hambros present? I need antenna help. I have a few portables but I've never been able to catch my own skykang :(. All I can seem to catch on sidebands with my Grundig G3 is data trasmissions. My antenna is also shit. Also is there any way I could buy a device that does something similar to the waterfall on the SDRs so I won't have to manually scan for broadcasts?

I love how comfy these threads are. Just a shame we can't give out our callsigns on here for the HAMs.

>>140444797
Does your Grundig have an antenna input?

Ok no-hammer here, how do I get into this thing?
It's pretty fucking cool.

>>140445043
yes its a 1/8th jack. I've read though that you might be better off just alligator clamping directly to the antenna because it has more overload protection. Also, if I'm running batteries how the fuck am I supposed to ground the radio? Right now I just have a random wire antenna in the rafters of my garage. It is probably only 15 or 20ft. When I lived at my parents they had a two car garage and I had a halfass sky loop in their garage that was about 120ft but I only had my C Crane pocket SW then so no side bands. I mostly like to listen to 80/75m in the early morning. I'm in the middle of bumfuck nebraska so no SDRs near by but I could usually pick up Colorado guys on 80ms

I really need to build an antenna thats not shit but I really don't know what to do.

>>140428365
It's a decent radio, start with a long wire and then go from there!

>>140429959
SDRs are capable but I don't recommend them for SHTF because a laptop only runs for a few hours. Also they have no front-end filtering, so nearby strong signals and interference will screw with them. But it's a cheap way to start out and very capable despite the limitations.

It's a radio. It tunes like your car radio. Instead of just AM and FM, you also have to listen for Upper Side Band, Lower Sideband, and CW.

99% of everything on the HF (High Frequency) band is commerical radio, HAM operators and innocuous broadcasting. Very few things like HFGCS (Skyking) and Numbers Stations are cryptic.

>>140445833

Think of it as your car radio that can pick up far more than the car antenna is capable of.

8992 USB and 11175 USB are your USAF global channels that these threads are usually listening in on. You'll hear several messages throughout the day (static otherwise).

You can pick up a lot more, though. Russian BEAR bombers usually are active on some frequencies when they're doing drills

>>140446319
>>140446152

Thanks!

>>140445913
I honestly suck at Antenna theory, but your best bet is a well insulated horizontal long wire (a randomwire) and you need to balance it to your radio's antenna resistance. Most radios are 50 ohms and a long wire will be about 450 ohms. You'll need to buy or build a 9:1 balun to correct it to 50 ohms and ground the balun very well (thick copper wire from the ground of the balun to a water pipe).

If a long wire is too big for your space, try a dipole or inverted dipole wire antenna.

>>140446152
There's all kinds of weird stuff, UNID'd morse, spread spectrum signals, over the horizon radar, strange digital communications, and so on. It's very sporadic and hard to predict mostly though, so it escapes attention that more regular transmissions like numbers stations attract.

For example, there are chirp sounders, radios which constantly broadcast a sweeping ping up the spectrum. This happens all the time (sounds like a very quickly rising "wheep") and if the locations of the sounders are known, you can use this information to generate a real-time graph on what bands are open for transmission and reception.

>>140446879
True, true. Forgive me, I was intentionally being glib about the very basics of what can be heard.

>There's no way we can actually listen in on military shit right?
Yes, there actually is because you don't have the means to break their coded messages.

>>140476080

yeah i heard the "callsigns" are actually the phrase to tell the listener what page in his code book to use to decode the message basically cause when i started listening to these it was
Milkyway
Glenmore

Original
Orange
Rareness
Quickling

and you never hear them again after a day or so

That would be one reasonable explanation.

Another would be rotating callsigns for the various bases.
