SOS Call - Operator Claiming to be N7IU (CW @ ~ 3,913Khz +/-) 12:00am - 12:20am

Reception of an SOS call via station claiming to be N7IU on Tuesday 9-02-2008. Entire call lasted approximately 20 minutes. Was responded to by W9SHO. Unfortunately, I was not able to capture the response and entire conversation as my PC (in typical Microsoft fashion) ran out of virtual memory during that portion.

The last part I could catch before the machine crashed seems to be a request to pass on information to a 3rd party although I can not swear to this.

I had just installed the new antenna about three hours earlier and caught this totally by chance.

You probably will not be able to read the screen due to the small video size.
