THE STATIC CRACKLED THROUGH THE SPEAKER AT 2 AM. MY UNCLE'S OLD
KENWOOD RADIO PICKING UP NOTHING BUT ATMOSPHERIC NOISE FOR YEARSUNTIL
TONIGHT. A VOICE, BROKEN AND DESPERATE: "...CAN ANYONE HEAR ME? THIS
IS KD4-..."
I GRABBED THE MICROPHONE. "I HEAR YOU. WHAT'S YOUR LOCATION?"
SILENCE. THEN: "I'M IN THE TOWER. THE ONE ON MILLER HILL. DON'T COME
HERE. WHATEVER YOU DO, DON'T"
THE SIGNAL DISSOLVED INTO SCREAMS. I CHECKED THE FREQUENCY. IT MATCHED
THE OLD MHZ MY UNCLE HAD WRITTEN IN HIS LOGBOOK. THE SAME FREQUENCY
HE'D BEEN MONITORING THE NIGHT HE VANISHED IN 1987.
THE NEXT MORNING, I DROVE TO MILLER HILL. THE OLD RADIO TOWER HAD BEEN
DECOMMISSIONED DECADES AGO. BUT AT ITS BASE, HALF-BURIED IN DIRT, I
FOUND A WEATHERED HANDHELD RADIO STILL TUNED TO THAT FREQUENCY.
IT WAS STILL TRANSMITTING.
