pmulcahy 06-06-2008, 08:34 PM I used to hear something like that (a count of numbers followed by a string of Morse Code) when when I was in Hawaii, at the lowest end of the AM dial. I asked a friend of mine whose father worked in base commo if he could find something about it, and his father said it had something to know with the LORAN navigation beacon at Makapu. (Makapu Point was visible from my house, and there were some buildings on it and a rotating light I could see through a telescope or binoculars -- but you may have heard of it more because it's still the place all the expert and wannabe hang gliders go.) Kind of makes me wonder now, since we were living on Kaneohe MCAS at the time...but some sort of nav beacon still sounds plausible to me.
