Spy Numbers / Spanish number station question
« on: October 22, 2009, 2028 UTC »
Been hearing this station on 8096khz from time to time. Just curious why it sounds like there is a telephone ringing
constantly in the background. Anyone else notice this?
It sounds exactly like an old telephone ringer and it rings in a weird pattern behind the spanish lady.
Also noted that a few days ago the signal sounded horrible like the transmitter was dying or something.

You should make sure it isn't interference since a lot of computer
electronics have 4096khz clocks in them to devide down to 1khz.
I know the router in our house puts out ticking noises at 4096.

What are there brands?

I must have 200 pieces of various electronic appliances parted out here and not a one of them have a 4096 clock?

Peace!
From WIKI page on crystal oscillators..
4.096000 Allows binary division to 1 kHz (212 × 1 kHz)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_oscillator

It is a popular frequency used in modems and sometimes routers. I know I have a few
that I parted from circuit boards in the popular 4 pin packages used in computer electronics.
Also other frequencies used in computer electronics are known to devide down to 4096.
That wiki page has some interesting info on it :)

If they could just stop giving Brother Scare hours on end air time it would
be a lot more fun to tune into.
I hope WBCQ gets more of a variety of programming in the time to come.

Spy Numbers / Decoding number stations
« on: April 29, 2009, 0246 UTC »
Has anyone here ever decoded number stations and uncovered something
really important that should be kept secret or the like?
I am new to listening to number stations and don't know much on how
to decode them.
Is there software to help decode them?
