West Coast Korea Crisis Monitor Report

Our friend Brian Herbert on the SoCalMilcom group reported the following at 0913 UTC to the group:

"South Korean government refuses to comment on the situation. One media outlet is reporting North Korean naval vessels are moving towards South Korea. Well over 200 shells have hit South Korea now, one South Korean Marine has been killed. I have noticed an increase in encrypted RTTY traffic between 4-6 MHz. Im also hearing back to back EAMs on 4724 and two way traffic on 6739 but its too weak to make out whats being said. Residents of Pyongyang have fled the island and taken to the high seas so we might hear some related traffic on the ITU channels."
