Just heard tail end of an eam message at 2300 uk time on 4.724mhz usb.
Are these essentially 'numbers stations?'.
Any other frequencies known?

They are emergency action messages used by the U.S.

it's not when you start reading about these EAM's. Youtube prophets are even less likely to be my friends. Where do they get all this nonsense about these messages.... :lol:

Yeah done a bit of google searching and found out a bit more on the subject.

I did think by posting on here i would have got a better response from ppl who either know about them or have more info on the subject from fellow like minded enthusiasts, but not to be!

I think you'll find it smoke and mirrors, in the same way as the flying runs by Russian bombers.
