[Spooks] HM01 Logs & Musings

[k1rmc at aol.com]

First time for me posting on "Spooks". 10345 KHz is very quiet daytime here in NH. 9330 KHz has a SWB'er daytime. Will try listening on the other frequencies but will have to be a weekend so I can sleep in. :-)

I've been musing over the odd callups over the last five days.  First of all, 
"83381" is definitely being announced slower than the other five callups by 
about 0.2 seconds per digit.  Second, "83381" headed the callups today and on 
the 20th, but not on the 23rd when "56801" headed the callup - and "56801" was 
announced at the usual speed.  Finally, with the UN in session (and Manhattan in 
lockdown-induced gridlock), one can't help but wonder...
