Edit--NVM, I Learned how to read...
3 bits? Seven variations? 111 = 7 and of course 000, the silent sequence, would be the eighth. It's binary!
000 - 0
001 - 1
010 - 2
011 - 3
100 - 4
101 - 5
110 - 6
111 - 7
Warkushanui was first, then 49 Arietis. Extrapolating that sequence would suggest the next system would be well outside the bubble.
No UA has been found in 1.4 other than in the shell around Merope except for one report of a UA found in a WSS in Warkushanui.
I don't know how many people have been looking on the other side of the bubble, probably not many. I'm assuming that's what you mean by "known space" and not the other side of the galaxy; in that case I can safely that no one has been looking.
the legend continues .. and already has 7 new pages 
Good points. And yes, I was referring to the other side of known space. Lastly, the sequence I suggested earlier would be too erratic with Warkushanui as the first system...
Dink.. another thought in the trash can.
Just taking a step back from the black market theory I just want to say that I find it rather odd that problems are popping up in Warkushanui. If you will indulge me in a bit of tinfoil hattery I will explain my reasoning. In the post where the problems first started intensifying in Warkushanui (https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/56290ddb9657baad39c6c8a7) they mention that UAs were discovered in the system, not necessarily brought to or sold at the station. I intend to do a scour of the system to see if that statement holds any water. But if we discover that this account is correct and that UAs can be discovered naturally in Warkushanui then we will need to seriously question what UAs are doing outside of the Merope sphere as discovered by red wizzard (lots of rep red awesome work). If that statement does hold true and floaters can be found somewhere in Warkushanui then it would mean that either out of strategic interest or simply benign curiosity whatever force is behind the UAs targeted some of our closest systems to Merope, literally going out of they're way and defying the rule that we have uncovered for finding them to simply observe or disrupt the actions of one of our systems. I would say that this would also hold true for 49 Arietis but in the article that covers the issues in that system (https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/5629fd9e9657bab139c6c8a7) the suggestion is more along the lines of UAs being brought to the station from elsewhere. Again just as a reiteration this is heavy tinfoil area as to my knowledge no one has yet discovered a free floating UA in Warkushanui or 49 Arietis for that matter, I am simply trying to spur research in this direction as it is a developing situation and it would not do to miss any of it.

49 arietis is very close and has black markets, my guess is so many have been sold, that theres a big cluster of them sitting in station and research labs there. The sheer weight are starting to affect the bigger stations and services.
So to progress the storyline perhaps a central sale point can be focused on to sell as many as possible to contain it to one system.
Sirius inc my player group has chosen iaopodes (close to san and pic tok) to sell enmasse as many UAs as possible so our research teams can continue to study them and limit the potential fallout area if anything goes wrong. The outpost is a bare bones terraforming platform in a low population system of only a few thousand permanent staff. If technical difficulties arise as a result of all the UAs in one spot we have aid teams to bing in backup machines, but the focus of UAs may lead to additional research outcomes
The Black Market theory for 49 A makes perfectly good sense. However the same cannot be said for Warku. I can't imagine more than 1 ever being sold there before the Galnet.
I think the "Ship Parked with UA in Hold for an extended period" makes as much sense as the BM theory, and it could also apply to Warku.
Loading my spare account with UA and leaving it parked somewhere "clean" is on my todo, but this probably wont happen until the Canonn Mass Rares experiment has happened.
I headed to Hyades Sector DB-X C1-19 and picked up a UA fairly easily. I know these things are very common now but if anyone needs one or has something specific they would like me to do with it PM me. I was test driving a DBX considering having a run out in one.
I'll be heading back to Varati (presuming I can get on tonight). I've logged out with it in hold and it's only a few jumps away.
Also nice one to all who assisted in the station building CG, I didn't get a lot of time but made a nice 10Mill!! at the top 40% level. Helping out with big rewards more of this please.

Your MORSE decodes as usual to the sequences for a Python.
Perhaps you missed how the sequences work:
They are produced in groups of three between two honks, so 7 honk cycles are needed to "draw" your Python, where the last is composed by one only sequence. That's why you noticed it being shorter. That's only because the Python drawing is composed by 19 words/sequences.

[/FONT][/B]UA BRUTE FORCE ATTACK update:
Phase 1 was completed yesterday, 2,5 hours for 10.000 words, 5 giga video produced, NO REPLY FROM THE UA.
Then I started Phase 2 (the MORSE one) during the night, while I was sleeping: the experiment was completed and the video recorded, but when I came back I found the game offline, because I forgot that during the night the servers went offline for PP update.
So I have to watch 2,5 hours video or repeat the experiment next evening.
But I doubt the outcome was positive, unfortunately.

Has a target station for the Mass Rares experiment been decided on?
I'm still planning to perform another huge commodities test, the same I did in 1.3, with the hold filled with all the commodities in the market.
But later...

Great work! No reply is still an important result.
I wasn't thinking of a drop test in space.
I was thinking of trying to cure one of the infected stations by selling as many as possible rare items to it.
If the trick worked on the Cerberus plague, it may work again.
It are off course alternatives to this theory.
One is that the 'agent' needed is a normal commodity.
Another is that we need to bring the UAs to the right rares station.
A third is that the rares need to be sold at Christian Dock, for Palin to figure it out (We don't want that do we?).
It looks like the UA is becoming the 'new plague'. It damages our technology much in the same way Mycoid damaged Thargoid technology.
It's up to us to find the cure.
We will probably need to find a cure, or lose a lot of stations.
Afraid I know nothing. All I know is I am holding 50t of rares, I assume for the experiment. Its all too Mary Berry for me.
Exactly how has this already got to page 8!?
Sometimes this mystery and the appetite for it still amazes me - in a good way of course
Edit: I originally wanted to be on the first page or so saying 'Thanks Arc and Yaffle for the smooth migration. Got it down to a fine art now' So it'll just have to go here instead!

That's only because everyone tried to be on the first page!
I swear the bloke at the blackmarket talked me into selling my UA, he promised to keep it safe.
Now, where did I park my Cobra?
hmm....... 64 Arietes was it? Gotta go, Bye!

From Galnet:
29 OCT 3301
The starport of Weyn Dock in the 64 Arietis system has become the latest to be affected by mysterious technical issues, following a rash of inexplicable breakdowns and malfunctions at starports throughout the Warkushanui system. According to Laura Bishop, technical supervisor at Weyn Dock, the starport has experienced a range of problems over the past 24 hours:
"First we had some power outages, now we've got widespread system failures. We haven't been able to determine the cause but we're investigating at the moment, so when we know more, you'll know more."

Rizal did say that all the UA sounds were heavily analyzed, but I'm still hearing different parts of its sound. So for me its cool. Kobal pointed out the tones(Example here https://youtu.be/Y6fUMTqVYkU?t=2m40s )
If you listen to the whole thing, these tones sound around the short growls leading to the big honk. They don't repeat. Not saying anything is or isn't there. It was new to me

I've got another 18 from goemon on my ship to bank, I need to arrange to meet with delmonte and outspan this weekend to add to stockpile.
Nearly got them all now
The original plan was to have them all on one ship and do various UA tests, but with the latest developments looks like we will be also selling them at one of the affected stations
