The HF Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP) radio signals are clearly heard in the 40 meter band, echoing off the Moon. This video shows S-meter readings as seen on a Yaesu FT-1000MP amateur radio (ham radio) transceiver located in San Jose, California.
The HAARP transmitter is heard for 2 seconds, then is quiet for 3 seconds. Round trip time from the Earth to the Moon at the speed of light is approximately 2.5 seconds. The weak echoes are clearly heard between the much louder HAARP signal.
The antenna is a 3 ele. 40m Yagi cranked down to approximately 28' (8.5m), beaming azimuth 145° (pointing away from the HAARP transmitter in Alaska). The Moon was almost directly overhead at the time.
Recorded in San Jose, California, USA at 0752 UTC 20 January 2008, on 7.4075 MHz.
