Got to pause my search for a bit, but another note about Mel 22 Sector ZU-P C5-1. The 4th planet is gas giant with ammonia based life, two landable moons - UA spawn rate still freaky high.
Just catching up with the thread and wanted to add my thanks for showing your calcs and corrections- I now understand the old UP solution much better!
Overall, I'm very impressed by the toolbox that FDev has built up for this kind of multi-layered puzzle.
Col 70 being mostly permit locked doesn't have cartography data. If the 27-34 Ly distance is measured to col 70 it makes it difficult to find the system by searching eddb/edsm material.
Also the numbers seem to match the Merope/HIP 14909/Col 70 stupidly well.
The real problem I feel is that we (I?) still don't know what we are looking for really. We seem to have 3 reference points, which we had kind of discovered already - and the measurements keep pointing to different systems.
Maybe those systems are of interest in some way.
Well that would be an easy one to test, go to the other side of the bubble and see if it points inwards.

Very likely. I have parked up in one as it's....3am I'll join in with the hunt tomorrow, i'm so tired right now if I found aliens I'd just crash into them asleep at the wheel lol.
Good luck the rest of you!
So we have lots of UA in the Mel 22 sector ZU-P C5-1
and Forth planet of Mel 22 Sector NX-U d2-27 is a gaz giant with life bas on amonia. I will try to fin UP there.
Are we seeing if there are more bases on in these MEL systems?
i thin everybody is asleep for now but that is a good idea.
Could be more bases. Alternatively, the symbols that resemble flowerships in the upper spectrogram could imply a source of Thargons, like an active (flying) mothership reporting its distance to the three reference systems. But that's just my hopeful speculation.
If there ARE more active bases around, where additional messages can be obtained from Unknown Devices, then the second number from the UL response should change based on the new reference system, but the other two numbers should be static. That would be good evidence for the interpretation of the coordinates.
Edit: Ignoring the flowership symbols, the symmetry of the top and bottom targets in the sonogram makes it look like this could be how to locate another base given the starting position. You have the distance from the current base, and the distance to the two other reference systems. Since the messages that yield this data come from the Unknown Device after it displays what looks like a galaxy map, I think this is showing how all the bases can be found starting with a single known site. The Unknown Link links them all together!

I've got a couple hours left. Lot of planet surface to cover though.
Me and several other Xbox players are in system as well, assisting with the hunt. Happy to help you guys out on the great work your doing, will report any findings, obviously.

What system is that?
Mel 22 sector ZU-P C5-1 & Mel 22 sector NX-U D2-31
UA spawn rate in ZU-P C5-1 are insane, found several in decaying orbits as well.
As always this thread is hard to keep up with, so apologies if I'm doubling up on something here...
In regards to the device's reaction to the Guardian tech, I threw together a quick video of an RGB graph, which isolates / amplifies the flashes a bit better. If it does turn out that there's some actual information encoded here, hopefully it helps:
What I really wanted to do was to get a single image of the flash intensity over time, but I couldn't work out how to do that in the time I have right now.

I also just jumped into a USS with several canisters of tantalum and several NPCs, one that acted like a fairly typical pirate and several others - missed the initial USS signal type unfortunately. Anyone else seen something similar?
Negetive, all signal sources thus far have been UA signals, seen about 10.
Hey code, I actually see you on the second moon lol. Coming in on the first moon there always a signal source just above orbit. Went to drop in but hit the wrong button and missed out :/
