"The Buzzer"

Recommended Posts

Sorry for making another thread,

 

The Russian radio signal "The Buzzer", reacted a few days ago; does anyone on this forum know why? There seems to be a link in the years, if so, when would the next reaction occur?

It did? I rarely pay attention these things but do you have a citation on that? My understanding is that most anomolies on number stations can be put down to maintenance interuptions, and of course there is no telling their maitenance structure.

What do you mean by "reacted"? From this wiki article, the station emits "a short, monotonous buzz tone, repeating at a rate of approximately 25 tones per minute, for 24 hours per day".

What do you mean "link in the years"? And by reaction, are you talking about a voice transmission?

Voice messages from UVB-76 are very rare. Three or four such messages have been intercepted in over twenty years of observation:

At 21:58 GMT on December 24, 1997, the buzzing abruptly stopped to be replaced by a short series of beeps, and a male voice speaking Russian announced: "Ya — UVB-76. 18008. BROMAL: Boris, Roman, Olga, Mikhail, Anna, Larisa. 742, 799, 14."[5] The same message was repeated several times before the beep sequence repeated and the buzzer resumed.

A similar voice message was broadcast on September 12, 2002, but with extreme distortion (possibly as a result of the source being too close to the microphone head) that rendered comprehension very difficult. This second voice broadcast has been partially translated as "UVB-76, UVB-76. 62691 Izafet 3693 8270."

A third voice message was broadcast on February 21, 2006 at 7:57 GMT. (recording of the third voice transmission) Again, the speaking voice was highly distorted, but the message's content translates as: "75-59-75-59. 39-52-53-58. 5-5-2-5. Konstantin-1-9-0-9-0-8-9-8-Tatiana-Oksana-Anna-Elena-Pavel-Schuka. Konstantin 8-4. 9-7-5-5-9-Tatiana. Anna Larisa Uliyana-9-4-1-4-3-4-8."[6] These names are found in some Russian spelling alphabets, similar to the NATO phonetic alphabet.[7]

 

Another voice transmission came on the 5th or 6th of june AM, around 01:00am; I don't remember, it was mentioned on a famous image-board and a large number witnessed it, it wasn't fake; link was from the wiki article.

 

It has happened in the past at those dates listed in the above quote. The person who told us had predicted it was going to go off because of a pattern in the dates, 1st at 1997December24th, 2002september12th, 2006feb21st, 6th June 2010; and the codes they were announcing.

 

I witnessed it, it was brief repeats of a man talking, then what sounded like a huge explosion, but it was so big it sounded as if it was an implosion, buzzing loudly. Then tracks, kind of like a train going over tracks but not literally. Then the voice again, and it would repeat, with slightly different processes.

Can you supply the links of where you saw it, where you saw the predictions, who predicted..... ? It will help us understand what you've heard and what it is you're talking about.

The mysterious russian shortwave radio "UWB-76", also known as "The Buzzer"... ...just stopped transmission. This is huge, considering there has been almost NO interruption since 1982. It even survived the cold war. This is.............. odd..................

Clipper, I don't understand what the problem is. This is a recognized man-made phenomenon. It stops and starts and stops. It's known.

 

It broadcasts beeps. And sometimes a voice is heard.

On rare occasions, the buzzer signal is interrupted and a voice transmission in Russian takes place. Only three to four such events have been noted. Despite much speculation, the actual purpose of this station remains unknown.

What.. exactly.. is the question?

It's the length between the abnormalities; it sounded like a message or some kind of nuclear test. We we're all coming up with ideas and stuff; someone said about "russia showing the power of the weapons" and some other guy mentioned that he had predicted it was to stop on that day, from examining the previous dates - he could of been lying, but why would he be listening as it did. After a few minutes, it started up again with a voice and that extreme pressure sound, repeating several times then changing.

 

It doesn't do this daily; normally it just buzzes; that day it didn't and it's like the 4-5th time.

Right, it does it occasionally, and no one knows why. Thing is - this is man made. That means that the "why" can be from a nuclear test (which I personally find unlikely) and to a really funny practical joke.

 

Unless some more information is to be released, I'm not too sure there's any real story here. Someone is broadcasting on that frequency. Broadcasting is easier than you'd think. Anyone can do it, specially in those frequencies, if you have the right equipment (which is TOTALLY affordable to people).

 

What do you think it is?

UVB-76 is the callsign of a shortwave radio station that usually broadcasts on the frequency 4625 kHz (AM full carrier). It's known among radio listeners by the nickname The Buzzer. It features a short, monotonous buzz tone, repeating at a rate of approximately 25 tones per minute, for 24 hours per day. The station has been observed since around 1982. On rare occasions, the buzzer signal is interrupted and a voice transmission in Russian takes place. Only three to four such events have been noted. Despite much speculation, the actual purpose of this station remains unknown.

 

The station's transmitter is located just outside Povarovo, Russia at 56°4′58″N 37°5′22″E, which is about halfway between Zelenograd and Solnechnogorsk and 40 kilometres (25 mi) northwest of Moscow, near the village of Lozhki. The location and callsign were unknown until the first voice broadcast of 1997.

 

Frequently, distant conversations and other background noises can be heard behind the buzzer: this suggests that the buzzing device is behind a live and constantly open microphone (rather than a recording or automated sound being fed through playback equipment) or that a microphone may have been turned on accidentally.
