Great video as always mate, been watching this recent series you have done religiously. Going through a bit of a rough time and it's helping me a little when I have the data to watch. I wish mobile data wasn't so expensive, may need to finally get myself a radio capable of lsb, USB and the rest. Atleast with radio you don't have to pay for transmissions

[@juliocesarpereira4325]

Try an sdr receiver. You'll have unlimited possibilities. I recommend the Airspy HF+ Discovery that covers 0.5kHz up to 31MHz on HF and 60MHz up to 260MHz. It also has multiple pre-selectors (excellent image and noise rejection) and great Dynamic Range. The best program to run it is SDR#.

[@munnsie100]

Now this is entirely fascinating. The addition of a secondary one certainly suggests that it is a relevant and utilised system, not just continuing to exist due to a regulation/rule from many years ago. Perhaps we are a step closer to knowing more, or a step further away from knowing the truth. The new buzzer sounds electronically synthesised, even if eccentric, it sounds much like my old alarm clock, which fed 240V mains directly into the radio speaker.

[@jonathaneastwood2927]

50 hz maybe but certainly at a fraction of the 240v AC mains supply, but i get your point.

[@borgheses]

the signal could be on an atomic clock and being used as a radar.

[@michaeljorgensen790]

It seems obvious that since Russia won't provide any info on it that it is military and thus can be deduced as a backup communication frequency between Russian northern fleet headquarters in Murmansk and St Petersburg. Telephone wire along the E-105 is vulnerable to being cut by Finland. The buzzing is to prevent Finland from using the frequency. Russia is still living in the 70s and is very slow to adopt new technologies....so we will have to put up with the buzzing for many more years.

[@OldManBadly]

What I think would be interesting to see at this point is if the station has direct signal into the disputed areas, or if it does particularly well in reaching other Russian areas of interest like Syria. Adding a new one suggests that it is still an important part of the Russian communication structure.

[@RubenKelevra]

Well, the idea of the buzzer is just: There's a circuit which detects the buzzing. If there's no buzzing, the message is beeing recorded. This way, random transmissions on the frequency cannot fill the tapes.

[@pinkmouse4863]

Fascinating. Just a thought, for all us newbs to the channel who have no previous knowledge of this subject, yet are completely taken, could you do a basic guide to what the differences are between all the antenna you show, and what is used for what signal and why? The "B" roll footage is great, but I look at, say, 2:28 and wonder why it has all those bits of wire wound in and out of the regular perpendicular bits? Cheers!

[@Wheelabarraback]

We can hear this in Australia on 10m . It’s the same sound as the Russian wood pecker used to make except without the knocking . That was over the horizon radar and travels with the maximum usable frequency. Jamming it will possibly do little as it transmits with extreme power and wanders around.

[@Povilaz]

Very interesting! In 2021/2022 (if I remember correctly) there was a clone of The Buzzer on 9250 kHz too. This seems to be the same thing just closer to the original frequency.

[@EsotericArctos]

When I was listening, the buzzing on 4612 was in sync fully with 4625, but I doubt it is any kind of harmonic, unless something pretty badly is wrong with the 4625 transmitter. Guessing extra frequencies are being used currently to allow the commands transmitted to get through. Mind you, with the signal being that weak on 4612 it could just be some weird artifact caused by a fault on 4625 transmitter.

[@pekkatoikkanen3996]

I've accidentally came across this signal when I was just recording noise for music production with an ordinary old receiver which still had most AM frequencies (named after cities). I live in Finland so it should be strong here.

[@synapticaxon9303]

Do they still have the Goliath transmitter that they stole from the Reich?

[@Tomteeejay]

The Russian Minister of Defence Sergei Shoigu announced that they intend to bring back the Moscow Military District and the Leningrad Military District and disband the Western Military District. The second Buzzer is likely going to be the Leningrad Military District command and control broadcast. Shoigu want the Military Districts to be formed by at the latest 2026. Perhaps 4612 USB will change channel marker for the reactivation of the Leningrad Military District?

[@cdrom1070]

[@Tomteeejay]

@@cdrom1070 :)

[@Stoney3K]

If it's a military channel marker that would make sense. It's also possible that the two stations are part of the Russian nuclear command and control network, but are currently unused, and the second Buzzer was brought on the air to act as a backup in case Putin does decide to make use of (part of) the command network. Would be interesting to find out if the signal is directional, if it is in the direction of Ukraine, it could be part of their active control network.

[@Tomteeejay]

@@Stoney3K Thanks for the reply. If they were part of the Russian nuclear command and control network they would be regularly active with Monolith Codeword messages as part of test and training. The same as the US Emergency Action Message stations. The equivalent of the US EAM stations is the Russian strategic aviation command and control broadcast known as REA4. This Morse station with callsign REA4 is regularly active with Monolith command and control messages. The likes of 4625 kHz USB and 4612 kHz USB will be part of the Russian military conventional forces and their mobilisation within the military district. If it was a nuclear command and control network it would be exercising regularly as per the US Emergency Action Messages. REA4 for the Russian Air Force strategic aviation is regulalry active on Fridays with extensive Monolith codeword messages.

[@richardmillican7733]

As a swl from the age of 10, and now 55, could in this modern age, be carrier/frequency "in use hold" for digital data bursts?

[@SpecialGuestStar]

Some say 4612 is a relayed version of the original Buzzer by a pirate, geo-located into Russia. They based it on that when the original Buzzer's marker broke down, 4612 had transmitted the same breakdown a few seconds later. There was no way the confirm this because the original Buzzer stopped transmitting voice messages a few days before the Ukrainian invasion has begun, but the good news is, Buzzer started to send messages again just recently, so if you catch a message on the original one, which is most likely to happen on Thursdays, don't forget to tune to 4612 kHz.

@@JamesHalfHorse I am surprised it's even a question. Horizontal axis on the waterfall represents frequency domain and vertical axis is a time domain. Just send bursts of energy in frequencies you want to look bright on waterfall to draw in single line and change frequencies over time to eventually draw an image. Kinda like the CRT.

[@JamesHalfHorse]

@@PongWithBreakout That is the how. The exactly how I am not sure or what equipment.

[@PongWithBreakout]

@@JamesHalfHorse Some algorithm that turns bitmap images into FM signal line by line. At least that's how I would complete this task. You need to have equipment that can FM with wide enough bandwidth to be seen on waterfall, but I guess it's not that wide usually. Additionally can try to implement QAM by modulating amplitude of the signal with luminosity of the pixels.

[@featheredskeptic1301]

It could be part of a radiocompas installation. I know the russians are using such navigation method since the soviet era. It's possible that this is an attempt to implement something similar over the war zone in Ukraine. I've seen schematic of a soviet ARK-15M (АРК-15М) radiocompas, but this one is using 4 transmitters in order to determine the location of an aircraft. Maybe this is a more advanced version that can work with 2 transmitters.

[@elvinhaak]

My thoughts too.

[@zombieregime]

Along with transmitting diplomatic messages (encoded, say to the page number and line of a certain book, making decoding nigh on impossible, even if the book never changes, which it can), I worry that its part of an 'all is well' deadman for the nuclear submarine fleet. Something like, "If the buzzer goes down, and Good Morning Moscow doesnt air.....assume the worst....."

[@featheredskeptic1301]

@@zombieregime Could be something like "all is well", but a submarine has to be above water in order to receive radio signals. Usually nuclear submarines stay under water for months. Besides, it would be very easy for an enemy to reproduce this signal. Having said that, the russians bragged about having an "all is well" system for their nuclear triade, but you know how trustworthy they aren't. The thing could be real, or it could simply exist in the minds of their propagandists. There can also be coded messages beeping through this thing. In this case the beep should be carrying some sort of information, and each beep is going to be different than the last. This may not be detectable to the ear, but it's trivial to record the demodulated signal and compare the data from beep to beep. So this hypothesis can in principle be tested.
