Don't let the smiles we exchange
be revealed to the eyes of men
Clearly as the moon
That courses across blue mountains

Skip writes that in his search for pirate operators he has had the
dubious honor of logging about 10 numbers stations for every
pirate he has heard. The rapid cadence Spanish stations he has
logged are intriguing - not something I have heard myself. Anybody
else noticed this format?
DID YOU KNOW???
. That wiretapping was practiced by both the Union and
Confederate armies? During the infamous "March to the Sea"
when General William Tecumseh Sherman cut a swath a hundred
miles wide through the Georgia countryside he was being
monitored in a very interesting way. Confederate forces
tapped telegraph lines carrying messages from the front to
the rear areas. They were able to obtain plenty of valuable
information regarding forces operating behind Sherman, as
well as cavalry movement and ration shipments.
. That the Marconi Conference Center and State Historic Park
near Marshall, CA is on a site constructed by the Marconi
Wireless Company in 1913, as a trans-Pacific receiving
station? The original site was over 1000 acres in size.
a large parcel of land was necessary because of the *MILE*
*LONG* receiving antenna which was supported by seven 270
foot steel towers.
HM' E-MAIL RECEPTION REPORT OF THE MONTH
Date: Wed, 27 Feb 91 19:50:03 PST
From: SSDD! John Brewer <brewer@anarky.enet.dec.com>
To: hm@decwrl.dec.com, ckp@decwrl.dec.com
Subject: strange stuff...
I just finished listening (2-28-91) to a station I heard once
or twice before, but not in its entirety. On 7413 at about 0310
a carrier was noted... I tuned it zero beat on 7413. At 0320,
"they" started playing random tone sequences. These were electrically
generated single frequency tones. About halfway thru the transmission,
a tone was 'held' for about 10 seconds, then the random sequence of
tones started again, except that the pace of the tones was doubled.
At 0328, a tone was 'held for about 10 seconds and the carrier was
dropped immediately.
I've heard this once before but did not log it. I am certain that it
was not a pirate, (the transmission of a long 'marker' carrier is not
usually done... Hope R occasionally warms up the PA with a blast of
carrier, but not for 10 minutes.!
There was no voice audio at all. By 'random tones' I mean no
apparent pattern.... there probably IS some pattern, but not to the
untrained ear.
Another one of those "bump in the night" transmissions that
mean something to SOMEBODY!
