Spy Numbers / Re: Homebrew numbers startions

Not to disparage your endeavor, but there are a few flaws. The obvious one being to put this out on CB radio. I don't think many CBers would enjoy listening to this.

When the Mexicans got really annoying on Channel 19, I would key up with: "Attencion! Attencion! Cero-Uno-Ocho-Ocho-Dos-Cinco, etc." for a minute. Drove `em to another channel.

Spy Numbers / Re: Strange CW Transmission 8097AM

That would make sense...if they (the Espiones Cubanos) don't hear the CW message (which either gives additional info or repeats the message), then it isn't a real message from Pedro. That's the real problem with numbers stations messages: verification. Without some preset term or phrase to assure the spy that it's the Motherland calling on 41 meters, any message could be a fake planted by an enemy intelligence agency.

Musharraf was/is a marked man...giving this power to the local fuzz in Amreeka would just be trouble, but Fibbies having it is sorta-maybe OK.
