| Description |
"The Squeaky Wheel" is a Russian military commandment network serving the Southern Military District. It broadcasts on 5367 kHz during daytime, changing to 3363.5 kHz for nighttime. While no other traffic is being sent, the station emits its signature channel marker. The traffic consists mainly of the following types of messages: Routine propagation checks, addressed to multiple units at a time, identified using word + number callsigns. Example: "Для ОТПОР-89, ПЕСОЧНЫЙ-21, ЧУЛЁБ-60, СТУПА-32, ЛЬДИНА-38, БУРКА-37, как слышно, как слышно? Приём" (Dlya [...] kak slyshno, kak slyshno? Priyom; English: For [...] how do you hear me, how do you hear me? Over). "Monolith" type messages, addressed to either the collective callsign Альфа-45 (Al'fa-45) or, less commonly, to the individual units. These are also repeated on 5361 kHz in CW with the callsign VZFY/ЖЗФЫ. Page of voice messages at : https://priyom.org/military-stations/russia/the-squeaky-wheel. |
