Skyking has been broadcasting loops of highly unusual, long messages to the US Air Force. These messages have been 207, 276, and 171 characters long, respectively.
[the usual length is around 30 characters]
These messages were also all of FF-priority, the highest priority possible that the public knows of.
The first two messages looped and alternated on multiple radio channels for a long time, easily 10+ times. All of this is highly unusual.
All of this is happening while trump is in south korea.
Military flights have suddenly gone dark to the public.
Take a guess as to what this is about.

As a old Navy vet, this has particular significance.
I have been listening to these frequencies for a long time and there have been no FLASH messages. Whoever wrote this post is confusing the source call sign identification, which begins “Foxtrot, Foxtrot, etc.” with a FLASH message.
The messages are longer than usual and the reader has made numerous errors and corrected himself, which is probably because of the sheer length of the one-time pad encryption character count being tedious.
Just like there was a Air Force bombing exercise last week in the USA that was run in the clear and used the target name of “DPRK”, this is all probably meant to rattle Kimmie’s cage.

p.s. Freepers need to establish a weekly FR net for rag chewing and as a back-up in case the internet goes down. I suggest a frequency in the 80 meter band between 3.800 and 4.000 MHz one night per week.
Having been an operator in the MEECN network for several years, I can attest that much of this is unusual.
However, “The usual length is around 30 characters” is not accurate. At least when I was part of it.
After the first 6 characters there are encoded, specific instructions.
I suspect this is an increase in the Defcon level. But not a specific launch order (obviously).
Likely US intel sees some unusual movements on the enemy side and is positioning for it.

Likely from Trumps visit to S. Korea....reason for and of...next location...China on Wed.
Am informed that it is a comm system test, planned for some time.
Look up Global Thunder.
That’s all this has been. Admittedly it’s been the most traffic I’ve ever heard in 40 years of monitoring the USAF frequencies, but 95% of it has been training messages during this exercise.
And “Skyking” is not an entity, it’s just a designation of the priority of the message. None of the EAMs I’ve heard the past 2 days has been designated “Skyking”.
The “Foxtrot Foxtrot” on these EAMs is NOT a priority designator, it’s just the current first 2 characters of the preamble. If you listen for a long time you will notice the preambles will all start with the same 2 characters for a day or so, then change for another couple of days. FF just came up this time. Means nothing. My own personal theory (wild guess) is the preamble tells the receivers which one time pad to use to decode the message. Currently they would be on FF pad. Tomorrow it might be EC, or ZL... just what ever pad was used to code the message.
Thank You JP.

Last time this was used to my own personal knowledge was to alert airborne USAF aircraft on the morning of 9-11. My USAF air crew friends said it scared the piss out of em as its sooooooooooo rarely used shy of a acknowledge (Ack) calls to alert forces like silos and subs and cold war alert nuke loaded bombers. Skybird !
