Has anyone come across this,
snowball.net message.

A member of our ham radio club intercepted this transmission and shared it with a few of us. He made a digital recording of it. The transmissions took place on 1-26-04 staring at 0:5:00 UTC. The frequency was 11.176 mhz, USB.

The conversation is between SNOWBALL NET and another station. We assume SNOWBALL is the network operator.

Here is a transcript:

Another thing, has a anyone heard about recent massive US naval deployment called

Exercise Blinding Storm and Exercise Rapid Allience.

And 30,000 troops to meet off No. Carolina with 7 other nations for joint exercises for 2 weeks starting 6/10. England, Canada, Holland, Germany, Peru, Norway, Italy, Denmark, France and Australia.

Just wondering, if this is old news.

It's related to the "Aussie Bloke" hoax circulating the Internet and conspiracy websites. Our original thread on these topics began here: Very scary end of the world article, and as news of the hoax became clear, we closed that thread, and opened this one: End of the world Aussie Bloke hoax thread... I hope that explains it.
