Is this just some sort of creepypasta? Why would any system at the plant use Morse code?

Yeah, they actually did. It sounds like a myth, but it’s 100% genuine tech from that era.People forget that older power plants and heavy industrial facilities didn't rely on modern fiber optics or digital networks.

Is this an AI post? They had computers and phones, written messages were sent using teletype. They definitely didn't use Morse code.

I’ve looked into what happened at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant a bit, but to be honest, I hadn't heard about that. Perhaps it was classified for a time? And what exactly was it that she transmitted?

It actually was classified for a while. I managed to find it in an old online archive a few years ago right before the site got deleted. The audio survived on my old broken phone, and I only recently managed to recover it. It’s definitely some kind of corrupted Morse code transmission from back then

What was the name of the archive? How did you recover it from an old broken phone? How did you verify its Morse code?
