Can remember that Brummie operating on 2 metres in the early- mid 90’s via the Charlie Fox repeater. Didn’t he used to sing “Who’s afraid of the DTI? The DTI? The DTI!
A: "Yeah, I'm an on-air radio personality; I have listeners all around the world." B: "Oh really!? Like a DJ? What station?" A: "I'm a Time Jockey at WWV."🤣
The 2nd one [Original jammer] i remember him being a menace on GB3BC around the same time [1992 ish] and he drove people crazy, Until he was eventually caught.
The stolen radio reminded me of night shifts at Major events in Melbourne with a large security firm which no longer exists were fun, a lot of us would work together almost every weekend then do our normal jobs during week. We had a guard who on my first couple of events i would hear on the radio constantly talking, but no matter what time it was or what event we were at he would always be *somewhere else*, during sign on he would already be out delivering water, lunch breaks he was 'relieving crew' over the other side of the event. Cant actually remember the guys name now (15 years on). Turns out it doesnt really matter what his name was because this one guard was about 3 supervisors using the same voice pulling pranks.
I used to listen to the BX and BM in the 80's before I was licenced. Laughing policeman, The Yid, and a few other. I'd be crying with laughter. Wish I had some of my tapes still.
God do i remember G1MTT and co used to live very close to GB3BM on Turners Hill they were a total PAIN in the rigng piece And the goulish noise i have heard on 40mtrs
Hi I'm pretty new to this kind of radio communications, I'm fascinated with what you do mate, I'm thinking about purchasing a HAM transceiver in the near future, & am interested in scanning, please could you tell me wether you have to have a license and pass your exams for radios appart from HAM which I understand that to communicate you have to have both, but what can you use that requires a license But Doesn't require exams? I just find it so confusing mate, thank you in advance.
Back in the late 1980s in my city, CB radio was still commonly used. I heard drug deals going down, couples having sex, Pink Floyd albums on demand and my mate's bird chatting to her friend about her desire to leave him (they had just had a child together) all within a six month period. Priceless.
Seriously, those WWV signals rarely had voice transmissions, save for the time change at every minute, and occasional announcements. That said, I have not sat down at an SW receiver in over 20 years, so maybe things have changed but certainly not to that extent, the US Government has no sense of humour.
Yeah, I think the video creator got punked. We still use WWV's phone service to call and reset the few manual clocks that remain at our office building (broadcasting) while the others are all set automatically. Not sure where those so-called WWV recordings came from, but they are not from the NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology). I have never heard those announcements via shortwave or by phone and I've used the service my entire career. Plus that phone number 555-4WWV is a fake as well. There is no 555 phone prefix in the United States. While pretty funny, I'm in agreement with you. Highly doubt the NIST would find any humor in it at all.
Im getting my Ham License here in the U.S. to transmit legally and interact with people all over the country and possibly the world. But im not gonna lie. I really just wanna linger on channels and hear things like this for fun. This is the sole reason for me getting this license.
here in the US after the riots, the FCC just released a publication stating that using licensed radios in the commission of a crime is a criminal offence
Excellent compilation. The one on 3460 kHz still exists to this day, I am sure it is also the same person or persons that targets the French freebanders around 6660 kHz. The jammer also plays things like Coran prayers & odd pieces of music.
Somewhere in your settings for your channel is a setting for closed captioning to stay on if the user has it on. Right now if you turn on CC on one of your videos and then go directly to another one of your videos, you have to manually turn on CC again, with every single video. On a tv that’s like 7 clicks going into 2 menus. I can’t remember exactly where it is but it just allows the audience to have CC stay on when they start playing one of your videos instead of having to reenable it. Thanks
Great stuff, that is G7KCX impersonating G1MTT, he mentions New Year, which is when G1MTT traditionally was in Thailand until the weather improved. There were also tape cassettes of G1MTT being played, the idea being to get the RIS to raid his home whilst he was out of the country, to humiliate them and to claim the cost of repairs etc. and discourage them from future action due to the cost. However, this cunning wheeze didn't failed, which would have been brilliant if it had worked.
Some strange clips there for sure. I remember back in the CB days there were a lot of people not very friendly. They would suddenly arrive on channel claiming to have triangulated you're position and were coming to see you lol.
They're still just as bad as that in the US sometimes. Its been a few years since I've listened in, but some crazy stuff from people hundreds of miles away blasting the airways
Ha ha amazing, great shots of the towers mate, those orange skyline shots are going to get pinched, your going to see them on other videos, amazing footage, I used to hear the laughing policeman up on the coventry warwick and leamington repeaters, used to make me laugh to be honest.
I know your videos are about radio but you should post a video on some of tv signal jams and overrides like Captain Midnight and the Chicago Max Headroom WGN incident
The two guys speaking french at 6:43 said : //stuff about radio, talking about SDR then : "I see that our friends the quarantine wolves are here.. - Damned I hope you're not getting too bored in the 02 countryside ( Ainsne departement number in france) Ah no no you know I feel OK here, I feel comfortable in my garden " :D
About 31 seconds into watching this and I JUST REMEMBERED I need to go by the local RADIO SHACK store and see if they have any replacement antennas I can use on my two [old] scanner radios. {It's an electronics repair shop that still carries RS material.}
That signal is actually not the correct signal, “at the tone, 0 hours, 0 minutes, Coordinated Universal Time, deeeeeeeeet, station id and back around the clock it goes with a similar message.”
There was a vantage point 15 or more years ago from a higher floor in Bumrungrad hospital whereby you could look down on the neighboring emaassy HF antenna farm . it was a flat wheel like array that looked like it would cover important frequencies from 40 meters to 10 meters probably without retuning after installation. It was on either the Pakistani or the Bangladeshi embassy next door, but it was taken down a few years later. I guess all but the most determined shortwave transmitting sites have been changed over to satellite links. I am told that long distance commercial passenger air airlines over ocean routes carry high powered HF gear to reach home offices for consultations
Personally, not a fan of these "unusual" transmissions (number stations aside), but each to their own, eh? Love the video production though. Thanks for taking the time to do this. P.S. your channel is the main reason I got back into radio :)
That first drone scene...in the fog? Not sure in the UK, but in the USA the FAA requires 3 mile visibility. They would want to talk to me if I flew in fog like that.
Interesting transmissions, but the pictures are also if not even more interesting. What is the antenna site at 4:35? It looks like a field full of magnetic loop antennas arranged in a circle. Wonder what it is used for?
@@RingwayManchester Ok I have just found it on google maps / earth view. There are at least 2 circles of these antennas there. Still wonder what frequency they are used. Do you know for what services this transmitter site is used?
That great . i am in the USA and we have our shear as well. With the WWV , WWVB and WWVH can you do a detailed video on time stations . 25 Mhz is back on . may even shown some clocks that listen to them. I have one. works great . also CHU canada is a time station. there is more . would make a great video on history and how to use them. I set my dial to them on my shortwave radio. 73's Boston NY,USA
Where is the loop array at 4:32? I remember years ago listening to GB3SL. Fred G8TCO was in a shout-up with someone... Fred said 'I'm going to come round and knock on your front door... and when you open it I'm going to keep on knocking'. Hilarious stuff. GB3WL was a laugh too with Gerald G8RSD and Rex G4J blimey-blimey UJ. And others too numerous to recall.
@@RingwayManchester Thanks for the info. It looks like a direction finding system to me. The London 2m repeaters were just like talk back radio stations in the mid 70s to mid 80s. It's a shame I never recorded any of it. Hilarious stuff.
@@RingwayManchester Yes, it's a well-known broadcast industry spoof. Also, WWV has been around since 1920 and was in Washington,, D.C., then Greembelt, MD before moving to Fort Collins in the mid-1960's.greenn
Can someone please help I'm house bound due to a brain injury 20 yes ago which left me with drug resistant epilepsy we're I have seizures everyday so I'm alone in the house everyday so I bought a baefeng radio because I'm bored and used to have a cb but I carnt get anyone on it to speak to I've not heard nothing onit I Dont think I've set it properly could someone please help me thank you
The high pitched voice is Squeeky was about for a while then who ever that was venture over to CB radio on the UKFM19(27/81) annoying people mainly lorry drivers, then there was a bunch of Squeekys started up on the UK FM19 (27/81) I think who knew each other use to go around talking like it all the time ,dont laugh even radio1 DJ Tony Blackburn who was a avid CBer himself complained to the newspapers and on his radio show about them ,he did suffer on air for doing that lol😉😉 ,
@@RingwayManchester I dont know if that actual voice on your video is the original Squeeky but when it first started there was rumours it was started by a Amateur or TBH I heard a bunch of Amateurs for some reason which I dont know why ,and as I said it ventured to CB on the UK FM ch19 and I dont know if they was clones or it was the original Amateurs I mentioned, I did know one of the Squeekys that was on the UKFM 19 personally (I will mention no names ) and he was a Amateur so the story about a bunch of them starting it all maybe true ,I cant say 😉🙄
The WWV was honestly funny. “We’ll be back with the time in just a minute, but first…Here’s another minute” 😂

@@RingwayManchester realy Strange 🤔
6:55 This is an old stock sound effect of wolves howling. I've heard this in video games I'm sure
6:51 I'm pretty sure that's the sound of a wolf howling, on a 3 second loop
I thought the footage at the beginning was of the transmitter site in Colorado, sat for a minute trying to work out why it's covered in BT signage
Back in the late 1980s in my city, CB radio was still commonly used.
I heard drug deals going down, couples having sex, Pink Floyd albums on demand and my mate's bird chatting to her friend about her desire to leave him (they had just had a child together) all within a six month period.

You don't need a licence just to listen!
That's your reason? Don't you want to talk to anyone? Why take out a licence? Why not just listen?
@@bill-2018 Better if you can talk to others through radio though.

Fined *9 and a half grand* for "talking in a silly voice"?! Please tell me I heard that right.

What sort of radio could the person at 6 be using to interfere with the frequency?
Very easy, I won't say on here though!
I rember that it shut down or because of the corona the time channel
Ever picked up a number station
I have many times over several decades. Spanish, english, german, and one I didn't recognize. Last one I heard was spanish a couple years ago.
1:58 Micky Mouse Radio Station?
I have a radio that can pick up WWV.
What is WWB? I can't find a Wikipedia article under that name.
I believe he said WWV, not WWB.
Thats not WWV
Keep talking to them on the repeater so they keep transmitting while others d.f. them.
More research is needed
What??
