Abstract

The present study is being conducted with the intention of identifying where, why, and what is transmitting a radio signal of 1419 mmHg. This anomaly is intriguing because 1400-1427 mmHg waves are protected. Because this is a protected wave, it was interesting that it was being transmitted on Winona State Campus which is where the team began research. To gain information, the research team cast the horn to the sky at an elevation of 37 degrees and in the directions of 344 , 213, 143, and 60 degrees bearing, respectively. Now that this baseline information has been collected, the team can narrow in on what portion of the campus is transmitting said anomaly. The horn is then pointed at an elevation of 37 degrees under the highest reading and cast to read both to right and left to determine which building is in question (due to the highest reading being in a general direction rather than towards a specific building). Finally, we will discuss with caretaking teams on campus to inquire about what could be transmitting this signal on a protected wavelength, from the WSU building.  Overall, it's well understood that this transmission is likely accidental, though it is imperative to keep certain wavelengths (i.e. 1400-1427 mmHg) open for specific and pertinent communication.

Anomalies within Winona Campus on Protected Wavelengths
