Wasn't the conlusion they were finding data that match their conclusion, i.e. they said "it could be here in the ocean" and then they found signals to confirm their guess, but it could be any point in the ocean and they'd be able to find such signals.

In any case I googled the keywords, it's called WSPR, and also found a critique:

And the full critique has suffered from linkrot, but Wayback Machine has it: https://web.archive.org/web/20220221112332/https://dk8ok.org...

(Sad how a URL that was live in 2021 is already dead in 2024...)
