Shortwave Oddity, Letter Beacon, ENIGMA ID MX, Morse code K, 20048.3 kHz, 12 Feb, 2023, 0333 UTC

Russian military propagation beacon "K". These Single Letter Beacons were assigned the ENIGMA ID of "MX", this specific example is of the K beacon, sending the letter "K" in Morse code. This transmission is believed to serve as a propagation beacon. These stations are sometimes grouped and discussed with Numbers Stations, however they are not Numbers Stations, they are military oddities.
This K beacon is on the frequency of 20048.3 kHz. This beacon transmits on the frequencies of 3594.3 kHz, 4558.3 kHz, 5154.3 kHz, 7039.3 kHz, 8495.3 kHz, 10872.3 kHz, 13528.3 kHz, 16332.3 kHz, and this one, 20048.3 kHz.
Recorded at my location in the Mohave Desert of California, USA, on 12 February, 2023, at about 0333 UTC.
Disclaimer: Many of the radio reception recordings on this KZbin channel pertain to unusual, uncommon, unknown, or mystery signals that might be found on radio, both shortwave and VHF/UHF. Among the subjects covered are numbers stations, utility stations, military transmissions (both in the clear and encrypted / encoded), aviation, maritime, ham radio, CB radio, radars, ionosodes, propagation beacons, ditters, dashers, whistlers, and just about anything else that might transmit, in any mode, USB, LSB, CW, Morse Code, FM, AM,FMCW, LFMCW, etc. Think of it as SIGINT (signals intelligence) / COMINT (communications intelligence) / ELINT (electronic intelligence) lite, the hobby version. All the recordings are made by me, most often at my home. Although there are a few mysterious things to be found here, you will not find anything paranormal, extraterrestrial, spiritual, or mystic. However, everyone can have their own interpretations of the sounds heard, make of it what you will.
