Station Implicate has been transmitting almost non-stop on 8992 for the past hour. Is this normal?

Maybe 10 seconds between each message.

Including one for "Dizzy Dan."

This has been going on all night! Cannot believe there is not more discussion about this! Very concerning.
For all we know they could be supply requests, status updates, com checks etc...
Looking at com traffic is just one part of the picture. This on it's own isn't that concerning.
 
Well, of course, most of the staffers think I"m crazy, but YES, this was a very unusual number of messages. There were 13 different messages from 0800 to 2200 eastern standard time. Three messages were repeated to a total of 4 on time frames starting at 1516 1544 1609 and 1639. the other was at 1528 1541 1606 and 1634 The third was at 1530 1537 1604 and 1632 All characters were correct, so this was no drill. There are not exercises going on, so yes, the amount of activity was extremely high. Across the pond there was an english sub that had an electrical fire. It was reported it was on a classified mission and had to abort. Could this have been part of the so many signals?? We will never know.

100%, risk assessments are always multi-faceted. Even if information from three or four reliable sources are all pointing towards a similar conclusion, a tiny piece of information from a fifth source might later get revealed that puts it all into a totally different context. The best we can do is stay informed, make educated best guesses then act appropriately. I'm not personally worried that anything bad is about to happen.
 
So given the uptick lately in EAM'S for what's been the last 48 hours I think?
is this cause of like a move back to 3 kind of alert just because of how unusual it is?

One of the decent osint guys from Twitter noted for the last 2 years they've run stratcom excercises first 2 weeks of November. So what do ya'll really make it of it?

There's always an uptick during the annual exercises, but they are over, and traffic is still unusually high.

First thing that came to mind for me was exercises of some kind. That makes a lot of sense.

Longer messages and more of them isn't giving me any cause for alarm personally. It makes sense in the context of the last few months. Nuclear war has seemed more of a possibility recently than it has in decades, it makes sense for exercises to intensify in response to that. If exercises are planning a real-world response to a nuclear threat, then radio traffic is going to look as though there's a response to a real threat going on. That's just me speculating though.

Guess we'll see. 🤷‍♂️
