Fingers and toes crossed this is something! I'm kinda expecting them to say it was a dolphin or something though.

“We certainly are in the best known location at this stage and doing the best we can to locate either pinger,” said Commander Lybrand, who said there would be no mistaking the sound of the black boxes.

“It will be very obvious if there’s a pinger,” he said. “It doesn’t look like biologics. It’s got a very specific one second (ping) sequence.”

My basic feeling at this point is that if this report is ACCURATE (big if there given the source), this could be the break we have been desperately waiting for. If it does pan out at such, the timing (batteries nearly dead) and chance (insanely large search area) of this happening are simply staggering.

(CNN) -- A Chinese patrol ship looking for signs of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 in the southern Indian Ocean discovered Saturday a pulse signal with a frequency of 37.5 kHz, state news agency Xinhua reported.

"That is the standard beacon frequency" for both so-called black boxes -- the cockpit voice recorder and the flight data recorder, said Anish Patel, president of pinger manufacturer Dukane Seacom.

"They're identical."

A Chinese vessel searching for missing Malaysian Airlines flight MH370 has detected a pulse signal in the southern Indian Ocean, China's Xinhua news agency has reported

There are no suggestions currently that this frequency is directly related to the missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370

SkyNews currently reporting that the "latitude and longitude" accompanied with this report (which they are crediting to an AP report that I am unable to find as of yet) does "not match" the current search areas. I am actively searching for online sources backing up these reports...

A Chinese ship searching for the missing Malaysia Airlines plane in the southern Indian Ocean has picked up a pulse signal, Chinese media say.

They say the signal has a frequency of 37.5kHz per second - the same as those emitted by the flight recorders.

However there is no evidence so far that it is linked to MH370.

The report says a black box detector deployed by the vessel, Haixun 01, picked up a signal at 37.5Hz per second Saturday at around 25 degrees south latitude and 101 degrees east longitude.

I am being very cautious about getting my hopes up, due to the reporting source....

Xinhua said the detector deployed by the Haixun 01 patrol ship picked up the signal at around 25 degrees south latitude and 101 degrees east longitude.

"It is yet to be established whether it is related to the missing jet," it said.

The update has yet to be confirmed by authorities.

Radar expert Professor David Stupples told Sky News: "If there has been a signal received, it could be the black box or it could be something extraneous.

"I don't know anything (else) that puts out the 37.5kHz signal."

The president of pinger manufacturer Dukane Seacom has confirmed that this is the “standard beacon frequency” of both black boxes on MH370 — the cockpit voice recorder and flight data recorder.

However, experts have cautioned that the same signal could come from “a variety of things”.

“It could be a false signal,” oceanographer Simon Boxall told CNN. “We’ve had a lot of red herrings, hyperbole on this whole search.”

We are unable to verify any such information at this point in time," the media office of the Joint Agency Coordination Centre said in an e-mail

This could be a variety of things," said oceanographer Simon Boxall, who said the frequency is used by a variety of instruments

It would be helpful if they gave examples of what else emits signals of this frequency.

Not going to get my hopes up, but ....... lease:

...if this is it...
Then the saying, "Coincidence is God's way of remaining anonymous" ....seems very apt!

The synchronicity of finding the box at this point of time, in this vast a place.... It would be a miracle and an answer to so many prayers....
Maybe a higher power is helping in the searchlease:

So hoping its true!
