In this video on what a nuclear bomb sounds like (nothing spectacular), I was interested in the effect the gamma burst had on the camera. If anyone knows enough about nukes, I would like to know if that sound was completely unique to the gamma burst (as in all electronics would record a similar signature with a 97Hz fundamental) or if that camera may have had an oscillator that influenced the sound making it unique to that camera.

Does anyone know what a nuke sounds like over the radio? Does it create an identifiable RF signature one can easily detect from around the planet or is this effect seen in the camera strictly from the gamma burst hittnig it and limited to line of sight?

For anyone interested, I extracted that part of the audio for a closer listen. I also held my phone up to my speaker to get a spectrum of the audio. I hit play a couple times which can be seen in the waterfall.
