NSSA-3 (atypical) is the title of an unlisted video that was uploaded onto the Local 58 YouTube channel on November 7, 2021 which was discovered through combining URLs on the Local58.tv website.
Description
The video consists of 58 seconds (a reference to Local 58 itself), and begins with black-and-white static before cutting to heavily distorted video and audio, with the 2000s-era Local 58 station ID and what appear to be faces—including what looks like a skull—sometimes being visible, before ending once again with static. Its description reads "Do not distribute. For internal use only."
At this time, it is unknown what the video’s title or the video itself might mean.
Discovery
The video can be found by taking the link to the local58.tv’s archived 1999 page (https://local58.tv/web19991103cache/) and combining it with the latter half of the link for the low resolution image from Contingency found on the site's second 2001 page (images/broadcastday.jpg). Doing so results in a new link (https://local58.tv/web19991103cache/images/broadcastday.jpg) that opens up the video on YouTube.
The earliest-known instance of anyone finding NSSA-3 (atypical) was from Reddit user ShankatsuForte on the r/local58 subreddit on November 11, 2021, four days after the video was uploaded.[1]
