Well Tesla probably heard whistlers. They were first heard on early telephone lines and no fancy equipment is needed to hear them. But without any technical details of what Tesla is reported to have heard or how he heard them, we'll never know for sure. On what frequencies did the radio hams...

I flagged this to Brian Dunning when I suggested he looked at the Long Delay Echos mystery, in which some reports link the Black Knight satellite. He got around to researching just the satellite last year on Skeptoid number 365. I know some folks have a problem with Dunning, his past, and...

What? No one mentioned The Unexplained podcast? Recent guests: Jesse Ventura, Jim Marrs, Richard Hogland (yes, well...), Linda Moulton Howe, Timothy Good, Paul Hellyer, David Icke, Nick Redfern. Past archives available. No ads, no subscription (although donations welcome), at least an hour...

You certainly would notice these blackouts if you use HF communications, 3 to 30 MHz, but it's not that uncommon during much of the 11-year solar cycle. These radio frequencies are not used so much these days now that we have satellite communications, but anyone who does use them (some...

My cottage was built in 1747. I expect dozens of folks have died in it, and have been born, and sadly probably occasionally both at the same time. Will the 'Died in the House' team come to the UK? As far as I can tell there are no ghosts, but that shouldn't be a problem for any team that wants...

As the Paracast is a speech-based show, I reckon the 64k bit rate is fine, especially if it keeps cost down anywhere. I didn't notice much difference, I mostly listen the podcasts in the car anyway. As far as I'm concerned mono is ok too, especially if it reduces any costs. What is MORE...

To us Europeans, the ads are bordering on what we'd probably call illegal. In the UK an advert must be "legal, decent, honest, truthful" to get broadcast or published. I have a couple of favourites; Alex Jones' research "a little over year ago" lead him to some wonder product so he "lost 37lb...

I hope there are more robust and reliable reports available on RF hazards. That report presented may well contain scientifically valid material, but it has not been accepted as such. The report has attracted comments such as: "Science-based medicine is great, but it all depends on how you...

Exactly. Most people have absolutely no idea about RF exposure, so half-baked, muddled, non-technical shock-horror stuff we see reported is fertile ground for generating unwarranted anxiety. FCC regulations are for people operating/maintaining/working very closely to high power (above about 500...

You need to establish beyond reasonable doubt that the levels of RF energy most people are subject to is actually dangerous. Are people really being made ill, or are they equating vague symptoms of life like tiredness, headaches, insomnia with something they've read about RF pollution? How do...

There are a lot of radio waves around us, but they can only deliver micro-watts of energy, unless you live VERY near to a VERY powerful radio transmitter. By powerful I mean at least 50,000 watts. Yes, there are reportedly cases of farmers rigging up fencing to collect enough power to light a...

I've been having a look at HAARP Status site: TheWeatherSpace.com – High Frequency Detection The site makes no technical sense at all. "Longwave readings", "Shortwave readings"? What are these waves? Maybe it refers to radio waves. Fair enough if you believe radio waves do anything...

Well, there is no denying what that document states. It clearly declares: "...a barrier to or confusing factor for hostile missiles or airplanes." "...or even complete disruption of guidance systems..." "...missiles encounter unexpected and unplanned drag forces..." "Weather modification is...

Indeed! And how is it to direct its beam to change weather or cause atmospheric drag to missiles? The antenna arrays are dipoles - not known for their beam agility. If it's working with other similar facilities to do this, then even more reason for them to leave unmistakable electromagnetic...

Thanks for the update Tyger. I missed that. Now... I didn't want to get into counter-posting of web pages to prove a point because it seldom gets anywhere. One person posts one link to support their argument, the other person posts another one to support theirs. The first person says the...

Not sure about Dr Nick Begich... The above quote taken from End the Lie. We don't want another Philip Imbrogno on the show - OK, not quite the same. Begich isn't actually falsifying his qualifications, but some would argue they're just not worth anything other than lending kudos. Ian

For anyone wanting to see what a true multi-megawatt, chaos-causing radio transmitter is like, have a listen and view here and here. This truly colossal facility transmitted a very disruptive signal around the world from about 1976 to 1986. That certainly left an electromagnetic footprint each...

If HAARP were ever able to do a fraction of the things it's accused of (assuming the facility could somehow generate the giga-watts of power required) it would leave a huge electromagnetic footprint each time it was operated. But it doesn't. Apart from the thousands of amateur meteorologists...

Well not quite. Solar cycle 24 should be at the PEAK now of the approximate 11-year cycle. The minimum was at least three or for years ago, and that was very quite indeed for an extended period. Here is some recent detail from NASA. The sun is expressing an unusually low level of activity for a...

Hmmm... Now that Nick is a professional ufologist (like many others), it's in his interests to keep the subject going, regardless of what he actually believes. And since all that possible "alien invasion" stuff he talked about just prior to the 2012 Olympics - discovered to be linked into...
