Looks to be late 20th century rock themed. Hendrix, The Clash, Talking Heads.

Yeah they're all coming from a 'top artists of all time' list. Something like this: https://www.discogs.com/lists/VH1-Greatest-Artists-Of-All-Time-2010/28212?page=1&limit=250

Though it could even be separated by genre too - I note that there's a distinct presence of punk and 70s rock that could be considered separate categories.

I wonder if right now in some bunker in Russia some kids in an intel brigade are trying to figure out the same thing, and are furiously debating whether Nirvana should be classed as grunge or rock.
 
Ahh, it was PADDLE CAKE, that's what I heard at first, and thought "nah that's too silly" - that'll teach me :D
 
Hotcake EAM
Pretty long one, at least 2.5 minutes.

My CSM had a bunch of funny phrases he'd use. the funniest of them was. We're gonna be flyin round like a hot cake man
 
Pretty quiet over the last 12 hours or so, sitting on a below average 15 calls for the UTC day. Would expect to get some messages in about an hour or two.

11175 been doing this for the past like 6 hours.....

http://vocaroo.com/i/s1OSipuI3E02

Just stopped at 1h45 PM Eastern, I made the recording at 7h16AM Eastern..... So it went for a good 6 hours +non stop.

EDIT 2 : Stopped for like 5-10 mins and it's back at it.

Yeah that signal has been why I've been switching to 8992 for most of the night lately :(

It did the same a couple of months back, then mysteriously stopped for a while.
 
Few more, bringing total to 18. Below average and stark contrast to yesterday.

Call me paranoid, but remember the pattern we've been seeing of high traffic followed by day of quiet generally indicating shit's going down. Will be interesting to see if that pattern holds today :)

13 so far today, bit of a contrast to yesterday.
 
A nice healthy 28 for the day so far, with activity coming through now :)

Only thing to note is the 1357z Skyking which seems to be introducing a new keyword theme - movie characters/movie names?

single callword SKYKINGs with 2 character authenticators. I don't like that. Especially coming direct from andrews.

Huh? That's the usual skyking format, and they often come from Andrews
 
A bit of interesting traffic since last post:

Yellow Snow and Genesis are interesting codewords - I feel like I've heard the first one before, I remember giggling about it, nothing in my archives though so may have been before I started recording the codewords.

Genesis is obviously falling under the band name theme, Yellow Snow could too, but from my quick Googling it seems to be a rather obscure grunge band, doesn't really fit with the rest of them.

29 is the new total for yesterday, 13 so far today.
 
Another weird one:

07:48:00 Skyking Rainbow Eyes GP OFFUT

"Rainbow Eyes" is a song name, this may be the category that "Yellow Snow" belongs to.
