Garbled radio beacon is a radio station in the Commonwealth. The signal can be picked up after extending the satellites at relay tower 1DL-109.
Location
The origin of the signal is a ham radio inside a cave near the UFO crash site. Inside is a hostile alien with a ham radio and a toolbox. Outside the cave is the alien's crashed UFO, indicating the alien was transmitting a distress signal, noted by the alien's "frantic" speech.
Notable loot
- An alien blaster pistol can be found on the alien inside the cave along with over 300 alien blaster rounds.
Notes
The garbled radio beacon starts broadcasting only after the player character reaches level 20.
Bugs
- [platforms tag needed] The radio beacon may not start broadcasting at all.[verification overdue]
- [platforms tag needed] If you kill the alien prior to extending the satellite, turning off the Ham radio will not make the signal go away from your Pip-Boy. This also happens if you had extended the satellite prior to the crash event.[verification overdue]
- [platforms tag needed] If you turned off the Ham radio before extending the satellite then its signal will not be marked as offline on satellite display but will not be listed on Pip-Boy radio tab.[verification overdue]
- On PC this can be fixed by entering "prid 00187000; disable" into the console.
There is a chance the ship wont crash and the radio signal cant be found upon reaching level 20.[verified]
