On July 29th 2014, an /x/ anon on 4chan was monitoring the Wide-band WebSDR broadcast on 8992khz when he picked up a strange pirate transmission overriding the signal. Upon closer inspection by another anon, it appeared that an image was encoded in the sound.

Skyking, Skyking, do not answer --OH VEYY

Basically, someone trolled the USAF's nuclear command radio. They sent le happy merchant on a NUCLEAR FUCKING COMMAND. However, it appears they would have needed a giga-fucking powerful transmitter for it to be this powerful. Another possibility is the pirate transmission being sent from a close location to the websdr web broadcasting antenna. Transmitting like this on a government frequency is basically a deathwish. There are designated frequencies for amateurs to broadcast on. You need a permit to do that; and if you do illegal things you are in deep, deep shit; namely getting v&.

Much more likely, the gay OP added the image himself before posting on /x/, resulting in the mentally disabled masses of anons believing him like monkeys.
