It looks obvious

Not your typical radio station

without comments

Many of us read spies stories, but this post is real and it seems that real life is creepier than any book. Apparently one of the methods to transmit encrypted messages is by using shortwave radio stations that broadcast series of numbers at scheduled time.  I guess you need to be uber geek to actually listen to these broadcasts…

Link: Numbers in the night

Just as I was thinking that we’ll never know any more about these, I found out that Cyprian television discovered the location of at least one transmitter associated with the Lincoln Poacher network. It is located in a RAF base in Cyprus. As expected, no confirmation or denial has been issued. But this still leaves many other stations, broadcasting endless numbers and letters for whole world to hear, but for only a few to understand. This just creeps me out.
