Something on 37.5 and it was 90 seconds worth of consistent ping, maybe what happened is their sensor did move out of the area or maybe moved in a different part of the water where the signal was blocked. and it can be blocked because of various water conditions. so it is possible. but by this point, we should have had airplanes on scene dropping sona buoys, listening for it. if they dont find it with that kind of effort after original detection, im going to become more skeptical. >> captain, th...

The santorum where they can get some fresh air and also are having health checks. >> certainly can understand that because they have been on a roller coaster with the news that has been credible and not so since this mystery began. but lets a little more about chinas dedication to this search. were learning that they have the most assets in this search and even broke the news of this possible lead. >> reporter: right. they have a lot of vessels on the water, several aircraft in the air. we learn...

Ship is now in the same area where the chinese vessel said it detected the pulses. compare for us the technology we have seen the video of the chinese vessel using a phone how does that compare to the technology. my understanding is that the british ship is going to be more sophisticated. and should be able to be more sensitive to picking up that ping and analyzing whether it is from the black box or not. how long will it take before the british ship will get its equipment in the water and start...

Commercial airliner. they do have challenges of the depth. youve been looking into that. >> that frequency 37.5 has been detected. we know of no natural sounds in the ocean that would send this out. take a look. depiction of the data recorder. thats the ping from the device, 37.5 khz. you see the battery capacity reaching the end of its life. it works to depths of 20,000 feet. the device, the ping locater towed along the ocean trying to locate this is one of multiple devices thats been able to l...
