[Spooks] Yosemite Sam and 4096 beacons

[Zack Widup]

I've been listening on the frequencies Yosemite Sam occupied a year ago 
and haven't heard a peep.  Just wondered if anyone else was doing so and 
if you heard anything.

Also, I've been listening for the cluster of mystery beacons in the 
southwest USA desert around 4096 kHz.  Generally they haven't been as 
noticeable this winter as they were last year, but I did hear the Morse 
"I" and the long dashes the other morning.  It seems they do best here 
just before local sunrise and go in and out of the noise.  Since the 
winter has become very warm and we've actually had some thunderstorms here 
in the last couple weeks, noise levels are higher than in the typical 
winter.
