You were rused. Any ham can look at that spectrum and instantly tell you why it’s fake. You just helped Vice to spread disinformation, lad.

- gfv 5y agoYou are very welcome to tune to 4625kHz USB yourself, or use a suitable European WebSDR if you're in the US.
- crumbits 5y agoI am a ham and I have a pretty good antenna farm going. Being a ham with plenty of time behind my own SDR is how I know this is fake.
- junon 5y agoYou're not a very good HAM then.
- a2128 5y agoYou've been very vocal about how this is supposedly fake so far, but you've been very mysterious. You say it's so obvious that any ham can instantly tell why, yet you treat the reason like some kind of secret that only you must hold. I can't help but think you may be the one spreading misinformation. You're welcome to prove me wrong though.
- crumbits 5y agoI’m going to wait a while and see how many more fake news articles come out about this before I describe exactly why these reports are fake. In the mean while you’re welcome to try to locate I/Q recordings of the incident. Trust me, none will be offered.
- medium_spicy 5y agoI’m mostly a radar guy so I’m missing it — is it the fact that we only see the upper sideband, as though the signal is analytic? I don’t know this software (only a bit of GNUradio now and then) so I don’t know if the green bar up top is just the filtered passband or what. If it’s supposed to be the passband, I get that some of the spectra (“demo2,” for example) creep out of it, which is fishy. Any insight is appreciated!
- junon 5y agoWhat? lol I was literally there watching the waterfalls on three different online receivers at the same time. You want to die on this hill? Or would you like me to dig up the recorded footage for you?
- crumbits 5y agoYeah give me the IQ file, while a screen shot has proof of what I’m saying the IQ data will have it in spades.
