6 - WHAT THE SOVIET UNION IS DOING IN HIGH POWERED, PULSED, LOW FREQUENCY, ELECTROMAGNETIC STANDING WAVES On October 14th, 1976 radio communications all over the world were disrupted by powerful radio waves emanating out of Soviet Russia. Numerous official radio monitoring stations scattered throughout the world registered specific details on this occasion. Subsequently these signals reappeared, sometimes a very low frequency, sometimes a very high frequency and at irregular intervals for irregular lengths of time. Both amaOfficial protests were lodged by Canada, Britain, United States and the Scandinavians to Russia who apologized for the interference, due they said to experiments they were conducting. teur and professional radio communications personnel monitored these broadcasts, attempting to identify their nature, origin and purpose. The defense and intelligence services of the United States were particularly concerned and by December of 1976 they had convinced themselves that the bursts came from powerful Soviet "over-the-horizon radar signals". This became the official explanation for a while and it was very plausible. But then the nature of the radiations changed dramatically. Very large standing electromagnetic waves were formed thousands of miles long, originating from below the ground and extending right up to the ionosphere. These standing waves had a periodicity varying between 4 pulses per second up to 26 pulses per second.. Obviously, these could not be over-the-horizon radar signals; everyone had to rethink their ideas.. For about a year these electromagnetic waves appeared sporadically with no further explanation from the Russians, only a promise to turn down their experiments and eventually stop altogether. Innumerable explanations were nut forth on the Western side, but the only substantial advance made was to determine that the electromagnetic radiation originated from a single source near Riga in Latvia. The transmitter at Gomel near Minsk was only brought into operation when things began to get out of hand in the spring of this year.
