Interesting! Not sure I like it as it means I have to click on all the things instead of just leaving the "breaking news" window open, but hey, it keeps things neat I guess. :)

Lots of EAMs since my last post - today is being marked as "moderately busy"'.

Hi guys,
Skyking about 30 min ago on 8992
Click to expand...

Confirmed, few other transmissions, will go through recording in the morning.

That seems a bit off. The last six times I heard a Skyking were around 9 PM MDT. They decide to switch it up or something?
UPDATE (9:12 AM): I have to leave soon, but we've got a sounder. Be on the look out for some more messages.
 
I swear every time I go out and get blind drunk shit starts going down. Woke up about an hour ago and struggling through the haze, but comms have been going absolutely non-stop.

Gathering list now, but I suspect we'll be breaking a record for number of messages today.

Edit:

So looks like 36 messages total today, with most of them in the past 3 hours. 4 Skykings today: 0747z, 0838z, 2242z, 2243z. Lot of fast test counts and mainsail calls from what sounds like jets or high altitude aircraft, judging by the voice sounding like it's coming through an oxygen mask.

There was also a 136 char EAM yesterday which I mistook for two separate EAMs. That's a bloody long message :D
 
Just intercepted a test count, but unable to determine call sign. Things should get busy soon.
UPDATE (8:12 PM): Had this weird thing happen where the tone for an incoming message played, but nothing occurred. Can anyone confirm?
UPDATE (8:14 PM): Andrews with a test count.
UPDATE (8:17 PM): Another test count.

Heard the same, plus a data transmission behind one of the test counts.
 
We've got a Skyking.
 
Modem sounds on 8992 - Data transmission!?

EDIT: seems to be their upgrade on Windows 10 ... 30 min. later it's still ongoing. :D
EDIT: 11:46z finally over
 
We've got a sounder.
UPDATE (2:01 PM): Another sounder.
UPDATE (2:10 PM): And another...
UPDATE (2:31 PM): And another one...
UPDATE (4:28 PM): Probably missed some messages, I've been away from the computer, but I just intercepted an all stations message. Unable to determine callsign.
UPDATE (4:31 PM): Astrocab(?) is signaling that it is standing by for traffic.
UPDATE (4:34 PM): Another sounder.
UPDATE (5:02 PM): Astrocab is signaling that it is standin by for traffic, for the second time in a row.
UPDATE (6:03 PM): Got a test count... but for some reason the callsign is odd. Who comes up with the callsign Club Penguin?
UPDATE (6:39 PM): I think I heard a Skyking, but the volume was so low I was unable to confirm. Can anyone confirm on this?
 
Starting a new post. Just got another test count, but I'm still unable to determine the callsign. I'd appreciate some help on this.

Curiously that started up as soon as my phone got the alert re NK's SLBM.
