Old news is always new to somebody.

It was "old news" when I was told about Yosemite Sam a few years ago. Didn't 
change that fact that I'd never heard of it.

Gee, I missed all this info when Yosemite Sam was transmitting. I wish
I'd known it then!

Fascinating. It does look like some sort of experiment maybe by some
government contractors.

Hmm. My friend (who reads this) has some sound clips on his website I believe 
of signals that sound identical and look identical spectrally to the data 
burst, but these are constant transmissions. I'll give a link when at my

I have heard the data burst sans-Sam. I noticed it showing up right on 15.000 
near the top hour one night in winter 2009. Wasn't that about how the ys 
transmissions appeared - right on top of wwv? The bursts are so short that I 
suspect they're something mundane but annoyingly placed -- a sync signal, 
automatic propagation test...?

I believe it was on the UDXF Group, but could have been here as well.
Several dozen people, SWLs, Hams, FCC and OOs tracked down the precise
location, contractor, possible building and most likely group to be
operating the system.  Some people even provided Google Map aerial shots of
the site.  Although never acknowledged, once the people suspected of
transmitting the signal were contacted and provided with details, the signal
and frequencies changed.  It's possible the signal is still out there, but
without the Bugs Bunny cartoon audio clip which made it stand out.

Catching this message before it goes out...

There was a private e-mail group set up dedicated to tracking the signal
down, I think there was about fifty of us on it.

You could hear the data bursts after every voice transmission part. I
don't know if anyone figured them out or not.

The "Skeptoid" podcast, devoted to skeptical thinking and debunking 
pseudo-science and conspiracy theories, had a rather interesting episode 
on numbers stations and Yosemite Sam was also discussed:

Skeptoid #107: Spy Radio: Numbers Stations: 
http://skeptoid.com/episodes/4107

In addition to the MP3 audio files, there are written transcripts.

There are a couple other radio related episodes folks here might find 
interesting:

Skeptoid #115: Search for the Missing Cosmonauts: 
http://skeptoid.com/episodes/4115
Skeptoid #122: HAARP Myths: http://skeptoid.com/episodes/4122

Enjoy.

True...

It was DF'ed by some hams to Laguna Industries on Laguna Pueblo in NM about 
50 miles from Albuquerque.  Laguna is a minority contractor to the Feds in 
various communications enterprises.

My theory was that it was some sort of government experiment of a new
digital transmission mode. I wasn't able to record any of it but the
transmissions included an 800 ms data burst of some sort.

In support of this idea, several radio amateurs filed complaints with
the FCC because one of the frequencies used was in a ham band. The FCC
took no action. And some people DF'ed the signals to be possibly from
a government owned site in the desert near Albuquerque, NM.

Guess we'll never know for sure. It hasn't returned to the airwaves since then.

[Spooks] Yosemite Sam and 4096 beacons

2006-01-19 Thread Zack Widup

I've been listening on the frequencies Yosemite Sam occupied a year ago 
and haven't heard a peep.  Just wondered if anyone else was doing so and 
if you heard anything.

Also, I've been listening for the cluster of mystery beacons in the 
southwest USA desert around 4096 kHz.  Generally they haven't been as 
noticeable this winter as they were last year, but I did hear the Morse 
"I" and the long dashes the other morning.  It seems they do best here 
just before local sunrise and go in and out of the noise.  Since the 
winter has become very warm and we've actually had some thunderstorms here 
in the last couple weeks, noise levels are higher than in the typical 
winter.

I guess it was about this time last year, wasn't it?

I forget the frequencies - my memory tells me 3700, 4300, 6900 and 10500.  
Is that correct?

[Spooks] Yosemite Sam- Heard on the East Coast

2005-02-16 Thread Dan Malloy
Visit http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/spooks to unsubscribe from this 
list

Hello Spooks,
   Most of Sam's loggings have come from the Land of the Road Runner and Wile 
E., but it is possible to hear Yosemite Sam in New Enlgand.  I started hearing 
him this evening at 2330Z, and he's still going now as I write this (0029Z).  
Rig here is a Yaesu FRG-8800, antenna is an indoor long wire about 5 or 6 
meters long, a modest setup so it is possible after dark.  I have only heard 
him on 10500, nothing on the other frequencies, not even, "Catch the wabbit."
73,
Dan Malloy

[Spooks] Yosemite Sam. . .might as well add my theory

Visit http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/spooks to unsubscribe from this

Well, I might as well add in my opinion/theory.

I think it's probably a test for later messages.  They could be using the YS
voice as a known quantity that they could compare to a single "control"
recording.  A voice test would be better in some cases than a certain tone,
because if the reciever is a person, it would be good to make sure the voice
is understandable.

Think of it this way.  The controls are set, the message is sent on a
certain frequency in certain conditions.  The quality of the result it
recorded.  The settings of the controls are changed slightly.  The process
is then repeated.

After a while, they could find the ideal settings to get a message from a
certain location to a certain location, in certain conditions, in a certain
format.

Just a theory.

[Spooks] Yosemite Sam..

I still copy "Sam" at about S1-S2 here in the Niagara
area on 3700 and 6500, very light on 10500Khz late
afternoon to late evening 

Additionally, if in fact the originator
(Perpetrator?)is enjoying a cocktail after the fact, I
would suggest a heavy dose of Mellaril would be more
appropiate than alcohol. Technical expertise and radio
savvy notwithstanding, if this person gets his/her
kicks this way as you theorize, I think he/she needs a
little "help"

"A very significant observation.  Sounds like Sam has
a single 
transmitter with automatic QSY every 10 seconds.

Has anyone else noticed that you can hear Sam on both
upper and lower 
sidebands, similar to an AM emission, but that there
is no carrier in 
the center?  (That is, the emission looks like
double-sideband 
suppressed carrier, an unusual mode.)  I missed it if
someone else has 
already mentioned this.

... MartinVE3OAT"




He's very light here in the Niagara Peninsula about
30kms west of Niagara Falls.(3700 and 6500)  I did
notice the double sideband carrier nature of the
transmission. Additionally I cant imagine anyone
postulating that this could be a "drunken ham"

[Spooks] Yosemite Sam is Back...on WWV!

Yosemite Sam is Back on WWV!

I got him on 10MHz at 1549 and 1550z 20050115.

This time it is just the buzz and "Varmint"

Here are the clips:
http://www.open.org/rumcd/sam/sam 1549.mp3
http://www.open.org/rumcd/sam/sam 1550.mp3

These were during the quiet ticks not during the tone modulated
portion of the broadcast so they are easy to hear.

Strange! Too bad condx are so bad or I would have tried the other WWV freqs.
