The idling sound pattern is what is intriguing to me, and it got me thinking about it being a radar, or something else that act similarly. I've heard the data sound pattern and it does sound exactly like STANAG 4285 data transmissions as you mention. However, the chop-chop part of the idle sound seems remarkably like the Russian "woodpecker" and other OTH radars I've heard. It didn't seem beyond possibility that the additional tone patterns were laid on top of (or interleaved with) the "chop-chop" part, and I was curious about it. There are lots of examples of signals embedded, or interleaved with other signals which are then later stripped out. X10 devices might be a good example, which use signalling over the 110v AC power lines. Another example might be IP over AC power lines. I'm very new to this, so I'm sure this has been brought up before and dismissed for various reasons. I just couldn't find any discussion about it in my Google searches.

I suppose the additional tone frequencies that are visible when the station is in idle mode, are used to synchronize and align the modems on the remote side.

Re: [Spooks] XSL Question
Visit http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/spooks to unsubscribe from this list Agreed that the idler which goes "nosiree bob, nosiree bob, nosiree bob bob bob" is for sync and channel probes. This waveform is only used in Japan and has stations of varying range on ~13 known frequencies. The data segments (payloads) are obviously encrypted and usually they have the same chop-chop-chop as the idler (though not always). The casinos seem to be replacing the machine which sounds like this with newer video based money eaters. Future generations will not be able to hear something that sounds unsettlingly like Japanese secure communication every time they drop a quarter, or two, or three. -hugh __ Spooks mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/spooks Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Spooks@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
