PROJECT 677 LADA
Testing of new Sankt Petersburg class submarine near Finland. Usual Russian naval beacons and stations are active. All skeds up and running on 18.1 kHz, yes, kHz. Weird Russian FSK mode preceded by N0N open carriers for 10 seconds. Activity reported on the Russian ELF submarine comm station (like the one the US closed down last year), on 82 Hz. Yes that's HERTZ!
UNKNOWN NAME 9/3-8
Joint combat anti-aircraft firing exercise by Russian and Ukrainian troops in Chita Region in Siberia involving S-200 and S-300 systems (Interfax-Ukraine)
[Look for those Russian Morse code air defense stations to be active, with time stamped tracking data. These are kept as a backup for training, and used during these exercises yearly. -Hugh]
