LOGS

Below, in reverse chronological order, are the notes and journal entries from my time attempting to decode the mysteries of the Radio. Some information has been redacted for personal privacy. Everything else is unedited.

1/13/2024

[Excerpted from journal] "...Found a cool looking old radio in the woods on a walk. It was mostly covered in snow but I saw the antennae poking out. Definitely broken though."

3/15/2024

[Excerpted from journal] "...thinking about cleaning up that old radio because it's just been rusting in the living room."

4/2/2024

[Excerpted from journal] "Really weird thing happened today in the afternoon when I was sitting in the living room, I started hearing crackling from the old radio. I assumed it was broken but I guess more waterproof than I thought! Also didn't plug it into power or anything so I guess its batteries still work? ... Going to try to clean it off and get more sound from it than just static."

4/4/2024

[Excerpted from journal] "I spent a couple hours cleaning off the radio, it looks nice and shiny now but doesn't respond to me touching the dials or buttons. I thought static was a fluke but then a little while after cleaning it I heard more static while I was in the kitchen. Need to keep an ear out for it."

4/5/2024

Note: began documenting any noise I heard from the Radio in a special notebook. All following notes are from that notebook unless otherwise specified.

4pm or so: static
6:30pm: static, human voice? can't decipher words
11pm: static, voice. "thank you"?

4/7/2024

8am: definitely hearing snippets of music. sounds upbeat but only half seconds at a time
later in day, forgot when: vague static

4/8/2024

2:15pm: "PSA:" something?
more static in afternoon, on and off.
Going to stop noting static because it happens pretty frequently and is uninteresting.

4/10/2024

Something that sounded like a news clip, reporter-y sounding voice. Couple of repetitions of the phrase E.C.O. Can't find any results that make sense for that on internet. Noting that signal is strongest when in direct sunlight, even though I don't see any solar panels or anything on it. Also when temps are warmer...? Thermoelectric??
