Nearly right. He did say that the transmission was it's purpose, but that does not mean it's solved. To whom, why, where etc still need to be answered. As far as the pointing is concerned he said it was deliberate.

That's true. I suppose I made an assumption that the following questions; To whom, why, where etc are what the Probe will help us answer.
We have questions about the UA but I don't think the UA as an in-game item can help us solve those at the moment. Maybe it will come back into play later. I still feel strongly that a UP focus is important at this moment.

has MB confirmed that the UP mystery solvable inspace or on a planet or one or the other. That alone would rule about 50% of the theories floating around one way or the other.
As a side note are there any ammonia terristrials in the paldies nebula ( not landables) but ammonia terristrial worlds i have my own theroy i wish to test out but if it doesnt work outthen it might be worth keeping it silent for now
I want a Wyrding Module on my ship!
mind knowing my luck in combat I'd lose my voice just as the Thargoids turned up
Refitting my Anaconda before heading out to Jacques. I have this week off work so I'm hoping to get there reasonably soon. A couple days maybe. Would be nice to help build stations and bases out there.

remember to search the planets of the nebula for barnacles (just dont expect to find anything as a starting point)
Perhaps you can get one?
It seems the old Saxon spelling of Wyrd is infact Wurd (like on the drawing).
It also has it's roots in the word 'wert', which means "to turn, rotate". And we need to rotate the drawing to get it to spell 'Drug'.

someone has a peregrina permit ?
p.s. a free floating UP in the peregrina system would make me become angry.
I'll be hanging around peregrina today probably, but I haven't seen anything sondontnhold your breath. why do you think I'm in this area?
o7 CMDRs!
It struck me today...our UA friends liked drawing ships.
What about the UP is their answer?
Assuming every quadrant presents a quarter of it and the symbols outside (--I, -I- etc.) indicate how to properly align them and also which lines to draw I fiddled around a little with photoshop:
summing up:
Make of it what you will

Just looking through the spreadsheet : https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/11-flqh1BfhRg8tPEVy4UaWiXyRQL8VBz42LYmUsHNVY/edit#gid=0
This :
Is that right? I mean if say a UA is next to some cargo it images the cargo?
Also doesn't the UA scan immediately meaning it'd always catch your ship?
I mean can do the expermint using a UP and record it if the experiment makes sense, but would need help seeing what it draws.

And btw. Do we have better reason to plot spectrogram in logarithm scale than "it looks better"? Why not to look on that spectrogram in linear scale?
it draws the ship listening to it and not the nearest object, I think
When I went to collect fragments for Palin from the UA shell I noticed that the UA scan would go off at a distance of 1km. That being said most of time I would be scanned instantly as I was dropped into the instance close enough to the UA to get the instant scan. But occasionally I would start out around 1.5km from the UA.
To perform this test you'd need to push the UP with the nose of your ship so it gets there first. Sounds dangerous when we think of the rarity of UP's. I've been looking for a while and I'm not even getting convoy pops.
This is in response to a requested test on UP/UA interaction. I believe the idea is to get the UA to scan a UP.

I highly doubt free floaters will spawn in Peragrina, the convoy was only found near by it and they seem to be slight random in spawns(They probably have area they can spawn) if anything it might spawn a Probe convoy due to how RNG works
Though it would be ironic if it did spawn(Due to the permit)

It's correct that the UA scans at 1 km. Before the scann, it Morses nearest local body. After the scan it Morses your ship drawing.
The message is directed at the ship. If two commanders in different ships are in the same instance with the UA, they will recieve different Morse messages. Distance to the UA, within 1km is irelevant.
Here is bitstorm's recording transcribed. x's are the wails I couldn't pick out. In the 2nd one the x's were "patched" assuming the "no three in a row" is a rule. Still left three I couldn't separate the pulse from the wail.
Whole Recording

Whole Recording with no repeat fix for wails
.-.-..-x.-..-..-.--.--.-.--.--.--..-.x-..-..-..--..--.--..--.--.-..--.--..-.x-.--..-.-..-.-.-..-.--..-.-.--..-..-
I also took the other two 6 min transcriptions from merope 5c (space) and tried to align them but no luck. It doesn't look like there is an obvious repeating pattern.
I listened to the chirps some, some are 3 symbols, some are 5. They don't seem to be syncronized with the tuba.
With this recording you have 4 things going on, ambient, tuba, chrips, and wails and none of it is synchronized. It all just seem pseudo-random.
If the image is the key to the probes audio signal we still don't know what to do with it.
The body-counting/system-description idea is nice but without a repeat where do you stop/start?
There is a telephone transmission code called Alternate Mark Inversion (AMI) that does a +1/0/-1 encryption/substitution for repeating 1's in a data stream but with only two tuba symbols I don't see how that would fit either.
Listening to probes doesn't seem to be leading us anywhere unless we are just missing something really obvious.
I just don't know what to make of that comment in the patch notes about the 6 min duration fix. How could that be a thing if it's pseudo-random?
