These signals are being heard in VU as well. I have been seeing chatter on Whatsapp groups about these to the extent that 40m nets have shifted up. It will be interesting to geolocate the source of these signals based on a regional triangulation. Some folks are saying these are of China origin, others say they are from Israel or Iran.
Of course, what they decode into is yet another mystery at the moment.
Its back now
Hi. Thanks for collating information about various member societies. Here in India, ARSI folks are more connected to fellow hams via whatsapp and there is a groups.io and this doesn’t make it easy for new comers or people interested to get into ham radio. What’s ironic is that ARSI is headquartered in Bangalore, India’s silicon valley and they could certainly do a much better job.
India to Chile ~17000 km. Sent QSL via post to ham radio stations I worked last year.
Only HF these days, 40 through 10. Was active on satellites, not so much now. 2 m is dead in my vicinity. The weekly net prioritises checkins from Echolink over RF and that’s a dealbreaker for me.
Will go back on satellites when HF conditions deteriorate. 73

Hello, I saw this community has zero posts and I thought, this should be a good start. Sharing with fellow CW lovers out there.
I started my HF journey last year in August. My first (failed) attempt at CW QSO in Nov 23. Then, I gave up. Restarted CW in March this year. Around that time, I gave up FT8 and also SSB. Still work SSB but not FT*. So, yeah, I am proud of myself to have achieved this. Some folks said, oh big deal, one can achieve this over a contest weekend. Maybe they can - for me it was significant work. Next goal SKCC 100. :-) 73 de VU2TUM

TIL - there is something called Gopher and Gemini. Looks interesting, will read more on it.
Step 1. Get your own domain. I bought from porkbun. This was a difficult choice for me, having heard /read cases of domain hijacking by unethical domain sellers. Porkbun had decent reviews. Step2. Follow instructions on protonmail custom domains. Wait for all the greyed out tags to turn green. I was impatient and my domain was marked as spam by Spamhaus. Had to open ticket with them to get off their list step3: enjoy!
additional steps. I moved my dns provider to cloudflare if you wish to go that route.
same here. Proton with own domain!

Unless I am travelling, I usually wear (wash & repeat) 4 shirts, two shorts and one pair of jeans. For travelling, I have extra clothes as its not always possible to do laundry when you are hopping cities every one or two days.
Thanks and as we say in amateur radio, 73 de VU2TUM
I just returned back home from a trip and yes the signals are still there as of 10 minutes back. They can be heard on my websdr https://websdr.vu2tum.com/
