Strange sinewaves and sweeping tones visualizing on the waterfall of the SDR.

Just got back inside in time to see it scroll off the waterfall.

Checking the SDR recording, sign on was around 1756 UTC.

Back on at 1836 UTC.

1846 Some horrible screeching sound now... oh, it's a Fleetwood Mac song.

I was tuned in on 6955 USB from Fair Hill, Maryland's SDR ...

1802 UTC: Sine waves going up and down (kind of a ghostly sound for today), with a pause for a female voice saying numbers, which weren't audible enough to understand from my listening. This pattern continued over and over.
1816 UTC: Off.
***
1842 UTC: Back on again, but with more than one tone going at the same time now.
1846 UTC: Hearing music, then off a few minutes later.
