An evening monitoring Russian groundforce military signals

I take a trip out to the remote barn in the Peak District to monitor some military radio signals. I wanted to find out if there's any increased radio activity on the Russian military ground force frequencies.
I get to hear some counter activity being transmitted on the frequency known as the Buzzer. I'm not sure whether the music/noises being played is radio trolling by amateurs or something more strategic.
If you want to find out a little more about these frequencies and how to monitor military radio signals, this link is useful: priyom.org/mil...
I'm a licensed amateur radio operator from the United Kingdom. My KZbin channel features videos focusing on operating portable radio from various locations plus how to videos, tutorials, insights and conversations in the hobby.

That's so cool... A storm, a radio and a gas lamp. Man, that's life. 73 from Italy

Russian Strategic Bomber Morse Code occasionally on 8112 kHtz at 1120 GMT. They send cw pings at 2 minute every 20 minute when active. Russian aircraft normally on 8990 kHtz cw (monitoring from Alaska)

I love the great feeling i get when watching your videos, radios are so much fun.thank you.

Hi. Karl. I am a short wave listener since 1969 from South Africa. But living on the island of Cyprus for many years. My radio Sangean ATS 909 X. Icom R70. JRC 525. Using long wire antenna. Plus ciao loop antenna from Italy. I have a mini whip antenna but it's prone to RFI. Many thanks for your time. Best wishes and 73 Costa Constantinides limassol Cyprus.

[@spaceflight1019]

SDRs will pick up RFI from the host computer if you try to use an indoor antenna. Learned that the hard way. They work well on a good outside antenna. I use an SDRPlay model, but I like my Icom R70 better. I found the FM board for it and will sell everything else before the R70.

[@don_n5skt]

Carl, I like your videos and I think you have a good variety of topics. I think you have hit a good balance between Ham Radio, camping, and cooking. Love to see the gear and the UK country side.

Tabasco do a great Chipotle Pepper Sauce but you can only buy the tiny bottles in the UK - I have to eBay in larger ones from the US or AU 🙄 but it is their only sauce I buy. Absolutely amazing in a minute steak sandwich 😗👌🏼

[@helraiser666painkil]

Hi Carl brilliant video mate and the contact you made with just 10 watts is really good on the 40 meters and that very thin coax works well with your Icom 7300 mate and your dinner sounded really nice as well and I got hungry watching you cooking on your little portable gas stove mate and the food looked lovely mate and I bet it tastes brilliant once it was done and everything mate. Thanks and best 73's for now cheers. Stephen M3SNV 73's.

[@wayneskiba1237]

I really like the Peak District that you go to, to play radio. It sure has all the requirements to make your radio outing very pleasant, I have to admit Carl, I really do enjoy your cooking segments, along of course with playing radio (hi-hi). Just keep doing them, I find your radio adventures very joyful, and peaceful.

Another good video Carl, i really enjoy your adventures. You should get yourself the AH-705 tuner for your 705, you could keep the tuner inside the barn over near the door and just run the antenna wire out the door and up a fibreglass mast or whatever.

[@robertmitchum2972]

Hi Carl. We’ve gotten the big winds here in the Northeast USA over the weekend as well... Everything you cook on your outing adventures always look so good. Did you ever consider doing a video and going into more detail about the dishes you are preparing? Kind of a cooking show, giving us the ingredients, amount to use, and how long to cook. I’ve gotten much bolder on my campsite cooking, but am in no way close your culinary masterpieces! Show us how to prepare some of those good looking meals!

[@M0SZT]

Cheers Robert ok I'll plan to do that in future videos

[@davequick3373]

This is such a great video OM! Thoroughly enjoy your little barn and roughing it with the ICOM. Really great. I have the KX2. Would have gotten the ICOM but it wasn’t available when I got the KX2. And a cooking show too… great!

[@Ploggy.]

Good video Carl (secret squirrel)👍

[@garyh8315]

A bit of a breeze, a good way of testing you antenna!! Great vid. WSPR is great for testing your station out. You could try a few 2m contests. Or more QRP with different antennas. Help the Foundation trainees etc understand how far signals can get.

[@alzeNL]

I've listened on 2M WSPR for days and not heard anything :( hopefully the propergation will help in the future. FT8 works quite well tho.

[@MarkPentler]

The spamming on the buzzer is absolutely amateurs/other people with kit having fun. I errr… know someone who did it for a little bit. Edit: this isn’t me outing myself btw, it’s definitely someone else I actually know, I just wasn’t sure how to word it

[@dodgydd]

Often wondered, this is a commercial barn for hire to the public, or do you have some ownership? I'm an ex-SIGINT operator so this video is quite, err, interesting.... Ah you just said it's not yours. I'd be interested in staying sometime, though. Where is it?

How's about adding in a bit of time lapse footage of clouds or sunset/sunrises? Or for a strange dizzy effect, attach a small camera to approx where your valve is on one of your wheels, for a bit of low speed weird sideways rotating footage of your location when parking up your "truck".

[@Subgunman]

Never thought of using a "pelican" style case as a portable spice case! Info on the pressure lamp your using? That is quite fancy barn you are working out of! Wish my location was RF quiet but the electric company has a very trashy and noisey electric grid her in SV9 land. 73 and good signals your way!

Nice video, furthest or most contacts for the cheapest equipment/setup is an idea?? Not a brilliant one, but an idea. Based on the opposite assumption of a 9300 say 400w and a HF beam it’d be hard not to make contacts 🤔 👍👏👏

[@g0ooq537]

Have to ask... but why all the camping gear/gas lighting when your indoors and have mains electric?

[@M0SZT]

The electric cooker broke and the Tilley lamp is a much nicer light, it heats up and also cuts down on RFI.

[@truemanofkent]

Any chance for some VHF/UHF operation later in the year. Thanks for an intresting video. 73.

[@chetnapatel9700]

is it possible to know it's frequency? Is it possible to encrypt the digital signal which is private or not audible though Only sounds as a human frequency be recognized?

The Russians routinely use ham (radio amateur frequencies). They have been doing so since Soviet times. Especially the Russian Navy. Tune into 3596 Kilohertz CW in the late afternon and into the evening from say 1500 UTC and you will hear Russian Navy Black Sea Fleet Sevastopol, Crimea transmitting Morse to the fleet, both in plain text for weather and coastal warnings and also cipher messages later on. You may have to use an SDR nearer to Russia to pick up the signals.
