Broadcast from Nowhere

Every night at 2 AM a radio frequency hummed awake between 88.6 and 88.7, too narrow for any licensed station. The song was always the same — until it wasn't.

Yeon Ko recorded it for seven nights. On the eighth recording she noticed: the second verse described her bedroom ceiling in precise detail.

She triangulated the signal to a decommissioned fishing trawler anchored three kilometres offshore, on a route no maps had updated since 1991.

The song, when slowed to half-speed, became a voice reading coordinates and names — dozens of them, each tied to a disappearance never reported to police.

Yeon's own name was the last on the list. The broadcast date matched tonight.
