👀 👀 German secure comms seems to have been breached by Russia! Here is a link to the conversation German with Russian subtitles. t.me/margaritasimon…

Pearl Harbor radar plot!
Here is what the Opana Radar Station looks like today, still in use as a radar site! Back in 1941 a SCR-270 was located at this site. The SCR-270 operated at 106MHz which is quite low in frequency compared with modern radars. I have attached a coverage plot of the SCR-270 at this site.

Here is a pic of the actual SCR-270 radar setup as it was in 1945. Image

đź‘€ This is an important loss for Ukraine! 80K6M is a large S-Band 3D phased array radar produced in Ukraine. This is one of the most capable radars Ukraine operates and very few have been produced from what we can tell. Specs are in the technical brochure images 3 and 4. Source:

Geolocation revels it was located very close to the location where a Ukrainian ST-68U was destroyed by suspected glide bomb recently! Eastern icon was the 80K6M and the Western was the location of the ST-68U

C-Band 5.405GHz +- 100MHz emitter south of Luhansk near Andrivka Russian occupied Ukraine 48.354121, 39.451673 2023-06-10 03:31:35 to 03:32:00 UTC. The dual pol X-Pattern is back!! ImageImageImage Looks like something new at this site between 5-20-2023 and 6-7-2023 48.355439, 39.450532

Large hole in the radome at the Mayak Crimea radar site, cause unknown. 45.345597, 32.521076 Imagery source Skywatch 50cm date 5-7-2023. Image Satellite images aren't cheap! If you would like to see more please consider buying me a coffee! I feel so awkward asking but I would really like to take this to the next level. Thank you! buymeacoffee.com/radioandnukes

Nova Kakhovka dam was blown 46.77618, 33.37169
18.2 km^3 or 14,800,000 acreâ‹…ft of water was held back by this dam! Image Looks like two breaches. One large one in the flood gate area and a second one through the power house. Image

This is a cool one! I don't know what we have here. It doesn't look like radar. Interference pattern with two pulsed point sources out of phase? Lots of radar pulses on the wider view. It only shows up vertically polarized. Lots of radar pulses in the data also. I'm processing the raw data into RF FFTs which will take a while. This is 5.405GHz +- 100MHz BTW. ImageImageImageImage

Seems odd to be flying a Bayraktar TB2 around Kyiv at low altitude as tense as things are right now? Unfortunately friendly fire incidents have occurred in pretty much every large conflict. I'm not 100% convinced about this incident.... Just feels off but the fog of war is really thick right now.

Why would Russia be interested in offshore wind farms? Here is my take based totally on informed speculation. Let’s talk about SCADA Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition. ImageImage SCADA is the control and sensor network for power grids. It can monitor things like Volts, Amps, Watts, RPM, Temp, Humidity, Alarms. It can control things like direction of the turbine, pitch of the blades, open / close circuit breakers, synchronization etc. ImageImageImage

Let's talk about Svalbard and why it's likely Russia was tampering with a undersea cable connecting the arctic island to the rest of the world. Svalbard has a large satellite ground station used mainly for polar orbiting satellites. ImageImage Ground stations near the poles are in view of polar orbiting satellites every orbit vs stations closer to the equator.

Russian Baltic fleet was just talking USB and this came in and just analiated them... Looks like wide band PSK just a guess without looking into it. ImageImage That's Container OTHR just above... It's so strong i can see reflections of moving objects Image

Different mode today at 17.050MHz Russian Container 29B6 radar 29Б6 Контейнер Playing back the waveform mixing with the live signal out of phase seems like a plausible way to break the container. Again this is all virtual I'm not even on the same side of the planet! Streaming IQ from Poland to the US analyzing all in software!!

Someone tried to sell this Uranium compound in Georgia, fortunately they were detained. The price of $2 million sets off alarms 🚨 in my head for that small amount. Going to see if I can dig up more. H/T to @Mattl8241 ssg.gov.ge/en/news/844/Th… ImageImageImage Could be that this is a sample and they have much more somewhere to else! Natural Uranium just isn’t that expensive for a small quantity. unitednuclear.com/index.php?main…

Sentinel-1 a/b use a C-Band Synthetic Aperture Radar centered around 5.405GHz Most likely source for this IMO would be the 96L6 NATO Cheeseboard radar. If anyone is looking at sat imagery in that area and spots anything let me know. ImageImage

Haven’t identified the system yet but it appears to have an interferometry or Doppler DF array. The green antenna may be separate. Looks like a cellular site also got destroyed. The location makes sense for a DF array. It’s high up next to a lake with the forward line of troops split by the lake.

🧵 Lets have a look at a few remote radar sites and see why it’s so hard to maintain these complex machines in some of the most inhospitable climate on 🌎! Let’s start with the FPS-117 above Tin City, Alaska Image First off where is Tin City, AK? It’s basically the western most point of continental North America. The radar site is ~30mi from Russian territory, ~56mi from the Russian mainland. ImageImageImage

This is no surprise if true! I have questions about the last position and timing. The last raw APRS packet shows it here at 11:23:06 UTC. ImageImageImage

This one has a radar reflector. Seems odd if you are trying to hide something. Could be an attempt to drain SAMs 🫤 Looks like the winds are right for a Belarus launch point. I don’t have the exact time it was shot down so this is really rough! Also I just guessed an altitude. Image

Behold the radio traffic from the #ChinaSpyBalloon #shootdown SNR is quite low headphones are needed! Might be worth cleaning this up through a speech filter. If you haven’t already heard they used the callsign Frank as a reference to Frank Luke a WW1 Fighter Ace (Luke AFB is named in his honor) en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Luke
