Spanish Numbers Station
« on: May 14, 2024, 0625 UTC »
I overheard a numbers station with a female voice reading off a list of numbers in Spanish on 10350 kHz on 2024-05-13 at 06:10 UTC.

Welcome to the board, Hfungry.  Interesting catch, this is probably the station known as HM01 (Cuban Spy), scheduled to be on 10345 per databases at that hour.

Yes, that was HM01 (hybrid mode, meaning in this case a mix of voice and digital modes) out of Cuba. Your bandwidth filter must be on a wide setting though - the actual frequency was 10345 kHz.
