MHz bands was broadcast. The taps and TMT (Technology Media Telecommunications)
transmitting them were powerful enough to disrupt radio and telecommunications and force
unsuspecting brains into sympathetic resonance. When the signal hit U.S. power grids, it was
picked up by power lines and pulsed into people’s homes on light circuits—especially in targeted
cities like Eugene, Oregon and Sausalito, California. By inducing nuclear magnetic resonance
(NMR) in human tissues, the Woodpecker caused pressure and pain in the head, anxiety, fatigue,
insomnia, lack of coordination, and numbness. A high-pitched ringing in the ears erupted
everywhere the signal was picked up and resonating along power supply grids.
The following year, the U.S. government sold the Soviets a forty-ton magnet to help upgrade
the Woodpecker, even sending a team of scientists to install it in Gomel, Belarus, due north of
Chernobyl, Ukraine—a magnet capable of generating a magnetic field 250,000 times more
powerful than the Earth’s magnetic field, like the SQUID (superconducting quantum interference
device).
THE TAOS HUM AND OTHER EARTH NOISES
Upgrades to the Woodpecker continued. Beginning in June 1991—six months before the official
end of the “Soviet experiment”—a hum pulsing at 17 Hz with overtones of up to 70 Hz was
heard in Taos, New Mexico. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) categorized these
frequencies as “psychoactive,” with harmful biological effects. Two percent of the 1,440
residents interviewed heard “the Hum.” Some complained of dizziness, insomnia, pressure on
the ears, severe headaches, nausea, nosebleeds, and broken marriages. Most could tell when
whatever was producing the hum was switched on and off. Taos and Groom Lake are on the
same 36° north latitude, so the Taos Hum could have been Groom Lake testing its own
Woodpecker signal. Groom Lake might also explain why Catanya and Bob Saltzman received
anonymous threatening phone calls after they brought in an acoustic engineer from Denver to
check into the Hum. The Taos News received threats, too.
In Alaska, Nick Begich (author of the 1995 Angels Don’t Play This HAARP) and Patrick
Flanagan (inventor of the neurophone confiscated by the NSA twenty-five years earlier)
wondered if the two percent who heard the hum were actually “hearing” ambient wireless
devices operating at 60 Hz through their skin, given that electrodermal response is a favorite of
psyops. For example, the EC-130 Commando Solo flying out of the 193rd Special Operations
Wing of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania broadcasts passwords that create capillary patterns on the
skin.
Sounds are being heard around the world—growls, booms, hums, even “trumpets.” Many are
no doubt the varying acoustic signatures of magnetized plasma Alfvén “whistler” waves in
Birkeland currents mentioned earlier in Chapters 1 and 3. (Low-frequency currents in
magnetized plasma are shear Alfvén waves.) A strange sound resonating in the Schumann
resonance well of the Earth’s atmosphere may well be Alfvén waves or an ion launcher creating
acoustic modes through the plasma densities of our conductive plasma cloud cover, now that the
entire Earth has become a battlespace laboratory. 22
Anecdotal data of people reporting the Hum seem to follow an earthquake curve (see the
World Hum Map and Database Project, thehum.info), pointing to mantle movements and
pressures resonating in crystals and ferrous components in the Earth that create a piezoelectric
effect resonating through multiple harmonic frequencies under grids tuned to 50 Hz and 60 Hz.
