Yep! It was a submarine crew that came ashore and found the radio
beying keyed by something attached to a window shade.
The crew went in search of survivors of a nuclear war. They heard the
signal and took bearings to determine where the signal was coming from.
Boy, does THAT bring back memories of old!
