Oh, I love spooky radio oddities. They're my favorite!
I believe they all say "Be sure to drink your Ovaltine"
ooh fra-gee-lay
"You'll shoot your eye out!" 😂
I believe the music in the atom alarm siren is: Atomic Alarm by The Leo Hassler Synthesizer
That is a ''You only know, if you already know answer'. Bet that is not the oddest album in your collection.
There is a video claiming to be that track on You Tube. No alpha sausages though.
And here I thought it was Atom Heart Mother from Pink Floyd!
That Atom Alarm was like an earworm, I'll be hearing that tune for days now 😂
08:56 - can someone please get the bloody door? !!! 😂
Sounds like a really busy bodega
@4:35 - "It's got a beat, and you can dance to it..." - some guy.
seriously, I like that one. It could easily be a random sample added into a dance track
@@confuseatronica I immediately thought of doing a mix with it! 😁
Remember when AT&T used to send multiplexed voice transmissions over HF? They went on until at least the 1980s. If you had a BFO on your receiver you could occasionally pick out parts of conversations if the channel wasn’t too busy. When the channels were idle, they had an AM loop that repeated something like “This is a test transmission of the American Telephone and Telegraph Company, New York, for test and adjustment purposes.” That seems a bit odd because a wide band AM transmission probably would not help that much in making sure the multiplexing and demultiplexing equipment was aligned.
SAUSAGE ALPHA I love it
That first one was top quality pirate fun.
When referring to a person, German "Würstchen" can colloquially mean, roughly translated, "stupid unimportant little jerk", and "armes Würtschen" can roughly mean "poor loser", so combining "Würstchen" with "alpha" could be meant ironcally. Who knows?
Regarding the DTMF tones, I decreased the speed to 0.25 in TH-cam and recorded it in Audacity, checked them by ear and increased the pitch to match. (the tones were flat by quite a bit)
I matched the recording against an online DTMF tone generator.
Please someone tell me if I'm wrong, but it appears to be a repeating pattern of:
0000 1111 2222 3333
Very close. The DMTF sequence is 1111 2222 3333 4444. Sequence lasts 2 seconds with each digit taking a 50% duty cycle of 130ms.
@@FelixW0lf well darn... Thanks to both of you for taking the time to decipher it.
@@FelixW0lf Hi, am I missing something here?
What you are regarding as four and I am regarding as zero appears to have two frequencies of 1336Hz and 941Hz which appears to point at "0" (after re-pitching the recording)
Or after many years of very loud music, my ears are shot! 🤣
According to what I hear, it is 1111 2222 3333 4444 - I did a lot of phreaking when I was a teenager and I memorized the DTMF tones, so I can tell them a part. After almost 30 years, I found something useful with that knowledge!
That concludes it then, my ears ARE shot! 😂
It's sounds as if the bugler is blowing out of both ends 😁
The DTMF tones are 0000111122223333 on repeat. No fancy software, I can simply hear it. 🙂
Are we sure none of these were Aphex Twin just faffing about?
6:28 could totally be from a Black Lung album.
Traced the signal to a mrtal hut, peek inside, there's the Smash Robots making mashed potato and singing 😂
I wonder what percentage of this audience actually got that reference. 🥔
@@AndyHullMcPenguin 2.5%?
‘….and they peel them with their metal knives!!!’
“Waark waaark waaaark waaark!!!!”
@@sprint955st Whilst watching Blankety Blank, maybe someone should ask them about the purpose of the "chequebook & pen"? 🤔
2:53 Sounds like an old Odyssey 2 video game console from the late 1970s / early 1980s
Würstchen is "hot dog"
Fun as always, one of these days an intelligence station will give you a shout out.
It's sort of already happened. Look for "They Called Me On Russia's Military Frequency!"
The noise at 3:00 needs a techno beat behind it, as do some of the others.
Thanks Lewis.....I love your videos on signal like this. 👍 It really brings out the geek in me! 😃
Happy Sunday from Riverside , Ca USA
Nightmares with atom alarm and sausage alfa.
I _might_ have gone little insane and made 5:41 into a melody for a piece of music.
Now, all you need to do is air it over shortwave and everything will have gone full circle
Be careful not to accidentally transmit "carpet bombing, carpet bombing"... :))
I wonder how many, who are responsible in some way for these odd transmissions, are still out there watching your videos? Just as they're about to click SEND in a PM telling you all about it when, at the last moment, they decide, "No.....better not," and click CANCEL?
atom alarm, atom alarm 💃💃🕺🕺👯👯
The interval from @1:11 to @1:20 is a frequency-shifted version of Scott Joplin's piano piece called "Solace", perhaps played on bells and is likely a mis-tuned SSB reception.
Someone said, "Atomic Alarm by The Leo Hassler Synthesizer" - is that actually what that is?
NGL, Atom Alarm kinda slaps.
The sound on 6825, im pretty sure that was a type of morse code. If you listen, there are three notes it goes to, just like three positions of a morse code paddle. If youve ever operated a very common dual paddle morse code keyer, youd know what i mean. Theres open or "nothing" sound, then another for . and a third for -. It sounds like its just going between three notes, like the three positions of the paddle.
Cable shackles and cable loops are approaching critical time before failure it looks like
Ha yes the french pirate captain le poodle i heard he opened a hot dog stall in berlin
This explains it. That is top quality banter then lol
04:11 Just a precision. There are no embassies in Frankfurt, only consulates (e.g., the Consulate General of the US in Frankfurt, which seems like a strong candidate for the source of this signal.) The premises of an embassy may only be located in the receiving State's capital city, i.e. Berlin in this particular case. Greetings from a subscriber who happens to be a specialist in International Law!
The one at 2:50 reminds me of the music at the start of a game of Pac-Man.
The Trumpet reminded me of the Drums and Trumpet numbers station of some years back. In the last clip if you listen carefully you can just make out what sounds like a Broadcast transmission. Was it Audio from a Transmission using the same site as the doorbell transmission,in,? I know the Cuban numbers station suffered from breakthrough from Radio Havana, suggesting the numbers station came from the same transmitter site as Havana.
Now. That's a conversation starter!
Lewis you find the most interesting sounds and display on a signal analyzer. You are unique. Thanks. Poulsbo, Washington
Rad video . Hope u had a great weekend
Thanks!
Thanks to you
Regarding Atom Alarm - I think the music is a highly distorted version of a sequence that Kraftwerk used to play at their shows, only that I can't find a recording of it for the life of me. I suspect that "Würstchen" is in fact "Werke" with a lot of noise and clipping. EDIT: Someone else says its The Leo Hassler Synthesiser rather than Kraftwerk, so my memory could be playing tricks on me.
Good call on Kraftwerk, is it possibly “Transistor” but shifted down by the SSB distortion? Seems like the tempo and the rhythm matches. Whatever the song is it has been stuck in my head since first watching the video lol. th-cam.com/video/ccXX-QwJnTI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=CYT5s8oHXn0BxRVq
@@inigo4688 Music is entirely destroyed by SSB unless it is tuned exactly. I remember a shortwave broadcast that was donation funded and was using SSB to save on the electric bill. It sounded really good until they played music, the song could be "happy birthday to you" but it'd be unintelligible unless my receiver was tuned dead on.
My guess is things like the doorbell are using a "known sound" not only as a channel marker, but also as an audio tuning marker as well. it would be a reliable way to know that you are receiving the signal correctly and at the correct pitch.
Very cool!
The DTMF sequence sounds like 0000111122223333 to me, but the row frequency is low.
I remember hearing back in the 1970s between 20 and 10 meters or so a signal which sounded like a sequence played on bagpipes which was about 12 notes long repeating over and over. Occasionally the sequence would have a few notes different or it would sound messed up like a tape had slipped off capstan on a reel to reel machine. It wasn’t an international broadcaster tuning up because it occurred outside of the international broadcast bands.
8237kHz is a marine duplex (radio telephone) frequency. Ch 65 on the Icom IC-M804 - ITU Ch 815.
Besides XPA2, these oddities are new ones to me.
I miss our old 100+ pound console with shortwave, need to buy one for the memories
Some of these sounds would make for some fire EDM beats
The noise heard at 7:52 reminds me of an 80's toy Space Shuttle that had three buttons. One for engine noise, one for a series of beeps and one for noise similar to what you hear in the video.
It was called The Alpha Probe and yes it does.
I don't think you'll ever get a music match on the first one as the SSB is so far off frequency, I don't think any music checker, Shazam etc would tolerate that as it's not something that would occur in 'regular' recorded music.
Try "Atomic Alarm by The Leo Hassler Synthesizer"
@@paulsengupta971 I did get to find that with google, however I was more talking about the frequency error in the recording wound be too hard for any auto recognition
the signal on 6825Khz (5:40) sounds to my ear like FSQ but a bit off the centre frequency
It does sound like that. It's possible the receiver tuning was a little off.
@@daveh7720 If I get some time I may even see if it decodes :)
it doesn't decode, so nope on the FSQ :(
@@NeilHoward Thanks for trying!
I personally find the Atom Alarm more funny than unnerving. You just can't take that seriously. That drumming part (if one is to call it such) could make up for a MFSK of sorts, if you let your imagination run wild.
Starting at about 06:24 in this video...
When _"Getting somebody on the HORN"_ is taken LITERALLY.
6.623 had some weirdness last week, but try as I might, I couldn't get a coherent rx .
Strong signal into north Wales. Best I could decifer was "bitty" English.
Kenwood R 5000, and a Yaesu ft-920 with filtering and DSP.
Gave up in the end.
i remember in the late 70 or early 80 hearing a morse code signal repeated over and over. i can still remember the sequence, I think it was on Short Wave but could of been on Long wave.
Was it .-../../-.-. ? I remember that on long wave back then.
@@numberstation Wow Yes that seems to fit perfectly!. I may have a recording of it on an old tape somewhere, but all my tape drives have suffered with belts breaking so can't search for it. Perhaps my next project. That's really great that it was not just me that remembers it. Do you have any info on what it was or for?
@@maxusboostus I think they’re Non Directional Beacons used by aviators for navigation, I remember another one that sent - -./-../- - around the same time. Strange how these things stay in the mind for so long!
73 by M7DOJ. Shortwave is crazy..
The signal at 7:50 reminds me of The Entertainer.
Honestly the PSK bursts sound more like someone is ripping ass, lol
YES.... spooky noises....
SAUSAGE ALARM! SAUSAGE ALARM!
What software is that for the audio spectrograms? I see it all over the place, but I've never figured out what it is.
I do not have recording, bot 2.5 years ago, at 7am, around 1400khz AM Radio (no local channel) I would hear PSK8 (I think) radio near Garden Grove BLVD and Edwards in Westminster, CA. I posted several inquiries about it. I thought maybe it was the 3rd harmonic of a 630 Meter Band station that was local to me. At the time, 2.5 years ago, I didn't know what the signal was that I heard. It was none of the modulation I knew of.
Einfach so ein paar Schläfer-Agenten geweckt.
Can you do a video of 107.1FM capital extra where is that transmitter located & it's output power thankyou for everything you do.
Is there any way to guess the power of the stations transmitting these things ? It might help to determine if it’s pirates or government etc.
Nice to see Penmon in a video, does this mean it's going to be the subject of its own video soon?
Or you gonna pick on Llanddona and took detour to Penmon on your way?
Either way, bring it on!
This Derelict Transmitter Station Changed Radio History

@@RingwayManchester HOW THE HELL DID I MISS THAT!
I shall take all further comments over to that video...
I wonder if it would increase the quality, when you overlay identical parts oft the messages.
2:52 - Just Aphex Twin dropping a new album
4:36 reach for the lasers!!
Open source: Audacity. Slow the sound and use the analyzer for the DTMF tones or, use sound forget and do the same.
There's encrypted data in the background of several of those signals. Listen for the vacuum-cleaner sound.
I missed a video what happened to it?
nice music before announcing the end hahaha
Was there any interesting HF stuff around the time of the Chernobyl disaster?
Live the channel do you have a call sign?
Hi. About 7:15 in the video. Where bouts is this transmitter tower ?
thanks adam
Check out "I Found This Transmitter In The STRANGEST Place! - Wallasey"
"Atomalarm" @1:00 at f=(344 to 365Hz)? I don't believe it.
4568.00 usb has a bunch of weird stuff happening 20:51 est 6-25
Tdoa looks like triangulation which is used here in the U.S.
Main problem your tuning was off you could have had better opportunity to hear the voices
Doesn’t Würstchen mean sausages or little sausages? (-chen is the diminutive suffix in German). Maybe “hot dogs” loosely speaking.
Yes mit Würstchen sind Sausages gemeint du kannst sie auch Hot Dogs nennen ;) it means hot Sausage in bread
How to listen this frequancyes ? "Hz" 22 hz etc
The DTMF sequence is just 0000111122223333. I decoded this by ear, not using any software. 4:53
4:34 I'm getting (3333 8888 **** 0000) But the '8' is a bit off tone. ....Edit: There are four asterisks not two in bold.. Ho hum.
Just one of my wacky observations, the PSK8 sounds remotely like what is on the intro of the Propaganda song P-Machinery - obviously it is unlikely to be the same message, but similar sound. Also it was in 1984... not sure how old this mode is.
Is that a ghost @ 2:23? 11 o'clock of the tower? Odd 💭
Where exactly are you looking? The tower fills the middle of the screen.
beep beep
Could you do a video on the radio licence now changing. From 10 watts to 25 watts baby. There's a few changes that are really good.
It’s been done to death, but thanks for the tip :)
@RingwayManchester no worries I just got confused as I had a email saying my licence has been amended. So looked to what happened.
I had a notice of variation come through with no details of what had varied!
Signal was mistuned.
Which one was the Atom Alarm?
the first one. it literally is a voice saying atom alarm
The one that says atom alarm….
@@handlesshouldntdefaulttonames Thank you! It certainly was the strangest!
@@RingwayManchester Thank you!
@@craft-o-matic399 It was a little hard to pick out on first listen. I had to replay it a time or two to hear it.
3:00
So many modulations. Even one of you're DTF.
Of course you couldn't identify the song !.....the one who recorded it didn't know how to tune in an SSB signal !!!!
“Atom Alarm” sounds like the garbled grammar of a non-native English speaker. Did they mean “Atomic Alarm” or “Radioactive Fallout Alarm “?
I'm not quite fluent in German, but my guess would be "Nuclear Alarm". Something akin to "Attack Warning RED"

Wasn't the 24th of Jan when Russia invaded Ukraine
It was 24 February - Independence Day of Estonia of course
@@user-mt5bc3bt2g so exactly 1 month before the invasion. Interesting. I wonder if it was a encoded sign for the rus military.
Clickbait. I was hoping that you had news about when WW3 will happen. I'm bored of waiting.
not long now
wait till after the general selection :)
@@PhyzzFizz "General selection"? Is that a euphemism for the alleged "rapture" of færie tales? 😆
Monitor the OTH radars, EAMs and military utility traffic. You can get clues from those
Yeah, the waiting for it is annoying.
Thanks RM****
I just love these randoms! 🦻
