    At the time of World War II, during the 872 days of the siege of Leningrad (now called St.Petersburg), the sound of a metronome was broadcast in the streets, the purpose of which was to notify residents of the city of an approaching attack by German aircraft. The slow ticking of the metronome meant that there was no air attack, and the rapid "steps" of the metronome indicated that it was necessary to seek shelter, since the bombing of the city would begin any minute. The sound of a bugle signalled that the alarm was over. The siege of Leningrad, according to various estimates, claimed the lives of 600,000 to 1.5 million residents of the city. Only 3% of people died from Nazi bombing, the remaining 97% died of starvation: about 4 thousand people died of exhaustion every day. We in Russia still pay tribute to the heroism of the undefeated citizens of Leningrad.

    I was a short wave fanatic as a kid in the late 1950's, I built one and two valve short wave receivers around the trusty DF91. I bought a shortwave receiver a couple of years ago when the international crises started because if the nasty stuff hits the fan the internet will go down but short wave will remain. I found that the short wave spectrum has changed a lot over the last 65 years, there is nothing like the number of stations there used to be when I sat in my bedroom till dawn listening to all the stations in the world that my 50 foot outdoor antenna would pull in, even Radio Australia and Radio Ecuador, The Voice of the Andes. When I was a kid the short wave band was full of people reciting long lists of numbers, I never did figure out what they were,I'll have a tune in on the 43 meter band this evening when the sun goes down and listen to the ticking clock.

    (dont know much about radio but) Ringed my dad, and he instantly replied that this was MARS (Militar Amateur Radio Service) and its supposed to only used in cataclismic emergencies. He said that historically, the americans gave MARS (amateurs) a tiny slice close to the military frequencies (amateur starts at 40m and 7000khz) so amateurs could talk in the military frequencies in case of war. Wikipedia says MARS ended in 2015 and its purpose was to serve for amateurs to assist in providing auxiliary radio emergency communications in case of need.
    I wonder if the constant sounds are just there to keep the channel alive? Or maybe the opposite, spam it so it cant be used.

You can hear this signal from time to time in Saint Petersburg coming from civil defense loudspeakers, locals call it the metronome.

    1:45 is not a clock! this metronome
    immediately recalls the siege of Leningrad, the metronome was used in the broadcast as a "carrier" signal, heard constantly.
    The sound of the metronome is also associated with the besieged Leningrad, which, by the way, sounds in the very "Leningrad Symphony" by Shostakovich. It's not for nothing that the composer incorporated the sound of the metronome into his work. The metronome was, in the truest sense of the word, the real savior of the Leningraders.
    The metronome has a very close connection with the residents of Leningrad and the radio. The fact is that radio at that time, especially for Leningraders who found themselves in this position, was the only way to find out about what was happening. But the broadcasts on the radio did not happen very often.
    When there were no broadcasts on the radio, the sound of a metronome was broadcast through it, the purpose of which was to notify residents of the city of an approaching attack by German aircraft. The slow ticking of the metronome meant that there was no air attack, and the rapid "steps" of the metronome indicated that it was necessary to seek shelter, since the bombing of the city would begin any minute.
    The metronome beat incessantly, constantly reminding the residents of Leningrad that they must be on their guard. These very sounds of the metronome were reflected in culture, poetry, and music (the same "Leningrad" symphony by Shostakovich).
    "In the darkness it seemed: the city was empty;
    Not a word from loud mouthpieces,
    But the pulse beat relentlessly,
    Familiar, measured, forever new"

    Been routine for the past month over at 6911. I am on early mornings listening and I have noticed pretty much the same thing. The signal strength varies a lot. The bugles are often followed by a Russian anthem. Picked up some female with feed back on her mic , reading what sounded like sets of numbers and letters...interesting to say the least.

    Its actually a SW output to tell clandestine Russian listeners they are tuned into the wrong station. It was set up many years ago to tell anyone who tuned in that there is no one here. At the moment. The bugle call or the siren indicates they should go somewhere else to listen. Its actually an automated signal that when received by an authorised receiver will open up another variable preset frequency to a transmission which is actually the one of interest.

    I'm not expert on radio signals however I was given to understand that such repeating signals or pre-arranged sounds are signals to under cover agents to perform whatever their assigned task is. I'm pretty such we in the west do the same on different frequencies. Or as many of the comments point out, maybe that's what they want us to think and keep us guessing.

  • @OldManBadly
    @OldManBadly Před 2 měsíci +2

    Based on the clips you have played, my feeling is that there are a number of different transmitters in different sites all competing for the frequency. Some of them are working together to "pass the baton" while others are just trying to go over the top - which explains the distorted ticking as it's likely doubling up against a second signal that is ever so slightly off frequency. I am assuming if you spent time looking a the audio spectrum of each you could determine how many different variations there are. From your clips, there appear to be at least 3 main signals more or less taking turns and a bunch of other sub-signals.

    If that's not you adjusting the receiver's centre frequency while the trumpet sound is playing in those recordings where it's off pitch, then it sounds like it might be a recorded interval signal the pirate is using to calibrate their transmission equipment mid-broadcast. My running theory is that either the pirate is trying to jam that frequency for one reason or another, or attention-seeking because of increased observation on that area with the ongoing war.

    The 'ticking clock' or 'metronome' could also be the sound of a Blocking Oscillator, which is quite a simple circuit and would take very little power to run. On this case it could be being used to signal that a particular transmitter is still functioning and the sound quality giving and indication of how well.
    Aside from this, has anyone tried to analyse the signal in terms to see if there is any embedded data? When I first heard this I wondered if it was a time signal, the equivalent to the MSF signal that keeps radio-controlled clocks showing the correct time.
