Canadian anon here, our SOS/emergency/weather radio station is presently interrupted/down. Today December 19th between 4:30pm PT and now 8:00pm PT. Still down as I write this. This is very unusual. Since 4:30pm it broadcasts this loop message: We are currently experiencing technical difficulties with our broadcast. We hope to have the system return to normal operation as soon as possible. We are sorry for the interruption. This radio station is facing the largest Canadian military base & military airport on the west coast: ID: CFB Comox Military Units: HMCS Quadra, 19 Wing Comox Squadon: 407 Long Range Patrol Squadron Map https://osm.org/go/WD5Nr5Jd--?m= Frequency 162.525 MHZ. This station is owned and operated by the Government of Canada. Station Location: Texada Island A first interesting "coincidence" is that at the exact same time the SOS radio went down, right after 4:30pm the sunset time, so right after it was dark, a unusual larger than usual amount of flights were sighted between the military base airport and civilian airport. Including both helicopters and planes. Lower than usual altitude. Much lower than usual. Windows are shaking. On their website there is no flights departure scheduled at this time. Maybe they just have good faith "technical difficulties". Or maybe they need a temporary controlled & lawful black out on all communications to facilitate their operations. What Is A SOS Radio? Many people are scratching their heads here. For those not familiar with SOS Radio, it is also call a Weather radio. It is use in case of major catastrophe events, severe weather events, or when the infrastructure goes down, make emergency announcement. Rescue team, army, firefighter, medics, boats, often use it to communicate information to the public. Those SOS radios have multiple backups for redundancy. It is a first that a SOS radio is "interrupted". Internet A second interesting "coincidence", is the cable internet was down between December 19th, 4:30pm PT and 7:55pm PT. This is unusual. At 7:55pm is back to normal. Guess where that cable internet goes through? Yes, the same military base. There have a data center there. I'm posting this with one of my backup internet connections Ping A third interesting "coincidence", is that ALL internet ping fails. Including HTTP, HTTPS, IP, Domain Names, Tor Browser, etc. When pinging any, this suspicious and never seen before message is display: Temporary failure in name resolution Question Anybody else has unusual outages? Radio, internet, mobile, electricity? China!?
