== Overview & Location History ==

The station was initially suspected to be operating from the [[wikipedia:Leningrad_Oblast|Leningrad Oblast]], with early direction-finding estimates placing the transmitter somewhere between [[wikipedia:Saint_Petersburg|Saint Petersburg]] and [[wikipedia:Kirov,_Kirov_Oblast|Kirov]]. Further TDoA investigations later suggested a possible location near [[wikipedia:Lodeynoye_Pole|Lodeynoye Pole]] (Лодейное Поле), potentially associated with the '''334th Radio-Technical Regiment (Military Unit 96848)'''. This attribution remained unconfirmed.

As of '''01/09/2026''', the suspected transmitter location and associated personnel have been revised. The station is now believed to be operated from the '''[[270th Communication Center|270th Communications Center (Military Unit 36203)]]''' in [[wikipedia:Nizhny_Novgorod|Nizhny Novgorod]] (Нижний Новгород), Russia, along with updated personnel and organizational attributions. This new attribution remains a working assessment rather than a definitively confirmed identification.

Since relocating, the station has exhibited unusual activity, including propaganda broadcasts, parallel CW dispatches, and digital modes such as [https://www.sigidwiki.com/wiki/CIS-12 CIS-12], CIS-20, and various modems. Furthermore, its overall behavior and activity patterns show strong similarities to the Russian military station [https://priyom.org/military-stations/russia/fgkt FGKT].
