Hi all

There is an open mic on 266.8650 mhz. Signal is weak and scratchy but I can hear people talking in the background. I don't think it's english.

Now I'm hearing beeping noises like they are doing something. Hmmm.

AM, FM, SSB, WBFM, what receiver, circularized antenna indicating it's satcom........? Any other details?

I don't see anything there.

narrow fm. I think they hanged up the phone. now i'm getting phone conversations in some language. Russian ? I'm using a BCT15. Just a RS mobile ant stuck on the roof pointing north.

Whoever it was just hung up the phone. I get a lot of phone conversations on that frequency. Making beeping noises again. Now talking. It's some foreign satcom phone system.

Found this on a web search.
266.850 SW 30 KHz Ch 34 - PAC: UFO4 177.1W Russian/Altai? phone audio 20121021 (edges of passband)
266.950 SW 30 KHz Ch 35 - PAC: UFO8 173.3E Russian/Altai? phone audio 20121021 (edges of passband)

The stuff I here is in that freq range. It comes and goes.

I bet that's what it is. I heard one of those once years ago.

When I heard one of these several years ago I was using a DMC-120 antenna on the driveway in front of the garage door pointing low and directly East which makes no sense for my location. Maybe someone down south was using one.

Was checking the milcom monitoring post site and found that the frequency is 266.8625 mhz and another freq at 266.9375 mhz Telcom phone systems. Possible russian and portuguese. Just set my scanner for that freq of 266.8625 and it comes in good. If you do a search between 266 mhz and 267 mhz use a step of 6.25 khz

I often hear Spanish language telephone conversations on 266.850 (or thereabouts). Since it's coming from the Pacific, I assumed they could be from Baja or western Mexico.

Here is one from a while back.
