Australia's HMAS Ocean Shield had reported a separate "acoustic event" some 300 nautical miles away from where Chinese patrol vessel, the Haixun 01, picked up a "ping" signal near where Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 is believed to have gone down.
Houston said the Australian vessel Ocean Shield would be delayed while it investigated a separate acoustic signal in its current search location that had only been detected in the last hour.

The recorders aren't the only thing that uses that frequency. They have yet to confirm it's the recorders.

So let me guess, you're hiding it in your garage shed?

I would think that is the family asking for people to stop sending them information about pics's from Deigo Garcia, the Rothchilds, Remote-controlled B777's, Sarah Bajc paid-actor, Free-Scale, ect...
Heck maybe even exploding Mangosteens.
Police on Wednesday said they had "obtained some clues" on what might have happened to the flight, based on the statements recorded from more than 170 people. This number is climbing.
It was the same day that they cleared all 227 passengers of the flight. They, however, did not give the same clearance to the aircraft's crew.
Their probe had focused on four possible areas: hijack, sabotage personal problems and psychological problems.
Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Khalid Abu Bakar had said police were looking at the crew of the flight, as the main "subjects of investigations".

I see you guys are still "searching for the plane"?
you took the bait full time.
this plane will never be found.

I totally disagree with you on that one. Just because you can make a blanket statement like that, and have no vested contribution to the thread is rather disrespectful to some of us in here that know a lot about air/sea rescue and find it extremely interesting and are following it diligently.
A senior Malaysian government source told CNN that Flight 370 flew around Indonesian airspace after it dropped off Malaysian military radar. The plane may have been intentionally taken along a route designed to avoid radar detection, the source said.

Holy crap, what is important here really eludes you.
Never say never, though some missing planes have taken decades to find (and some have never been found). Hopefully it won't take decades to find it, but how would you know how long it will take to find it?

I'd say it's important to find it to see if, for example, the airworthiness directive that applies to other models of the 777 needs to be expanded to also apply to this model of the 777. To people who don't fly (or had no relatives on the flight), this may not be important, but aviation safety is taken very seriously and that's why it's important to investigate each crash if possible.

what is important about the missing plane?
and I mean IMPORTANT.
please enlighten me, I'm willing to come to the light.
These special conditions are issued for the Boeing Model 777-200, -300, and -300ER series airplanes. These airplanes, as modified by the Boeing Company, will have novel or unusual design features associated with the architecture and connectivity of the passenger service computer network systems to the airplane critical systems and data networks. This onboard network system will be composed of a network file server, a network extension device, and additional interfaces configured by customer option. The applicable airworthiness regulations do not contain adequate or appropriate safety standards for this design feature. These special conditions contain the additional safety standards that the Administrator considers necessary to establish a level of safety equivalent to that established by the existing airworthiness standards.

There could be military equipment in the area, or who knows what. That's the point. That frequency is not exclusive to the recorders, so you can't just say they have a signal on the right frequency, it must be them.
