got it on nodes 1,2 and 3...just a message to tune in each week for updates...something about your government west of the blue(?) line...is there a dividing line in the country now?
13mhz, 272 azumuth on node 3
It appears as if the only node active is node one. It is not possible at this point to access node two, three, or six!

That's an interesting idea. Can you expand on what you mean by that and why you think so, please?
Oh, and other thing being stylish, why are we discussing this in colored bold font?

all nodes are active again, this is software and the last time things went off line was right before the broadcasts...basically it means they are changing things, this means activity

I doubt it really matters to the story and Duncan might be nitpicking, but I assumed the same thing. I figured if you have to tune in to pick up a transmission, then each node is probably a receiver linked to a certain antenna instead of a transmitter.
There's a photo on Sacred Hat's site showing a tower labeled "southernmost tower on the network". I wondered if that antenna was a location of one of the Black Hills nodes, but I don't know how to check or why it would matter if it is.

While it's always possible the receivers are also transmitters, the "Nodes" we see are representations of radio receivers which can show the direction of the transmitter when a signal is found.

I understand your point. I just meant that we didn't know which Nodes to listen to on the website.
Btw, I've changed the subject description of this thread to reflect the change to the Saturday updates. It's nice to know that we can look forward to weekly updates from the Cheyenne Government.

jeritopia.com chatroom for BHRC a place to meet ...as the boy says "tonight at 8" ;) xwarp has kindly set up a special chat room at www.jeritopia.com for the upcoming Cheyenne Government broadcast. The chat room there will be opened from 7pm to 10pm EST, tonight, January 5th, for discussion and analysis of the broadcast.
Let's see if we snag three or more azimuths to triangulate. Maybe we can pinpoint the originating location of these messages.

I'm thinking the time is tonight to get this ARG moving again. Having watched the Cloverfield ARG recently it sure seems far more active and IG site activity.
Will be back later on developments.

I must not forget this one! Where does it broadcast again? I think the game might pick up tonight, seeing as they have a date set for the season premier (at least I hope so). It's 8:00 EST, right?

FYI:
Don't expect to just start hearing things in the receiver .swfs at 8pm after having pre-set them, earlier.
They'll likely replace the receiver .swfs at 8pm requiring you to get updated copies from the dearther page at that time.
(Their way of keeping us from decompiling the flash files to get the info earlier than they intend.)

Do you need to be on a specific node?
