My college senior project. An introduction to the mysterious numbers stations that roam the shortwave band. This is the original 10 minute version, which was later expanded to 20 minutes.

  • when i was a child i had an old radio and used to listen to number stations on it.they sounded exactly as they sound today and that was 25 years ago! the same 5 figure system. they just send it out there for everybody... so they are obviously not afraid of anybody breaking the code... wouldn't an email or sms be less suspicious than a radio? ... just thinking aloud...

  • @CEMTV76 Coded burst transmissions would require specific hardware to decode. Such hardware would be incriminating if anyone was found in possession, even if the person was not previously under suspicion. A pad of paper and a shortwave portable is much less of an indicator someone is up to no-good. This is actually a very affective system, even if it seems old school.

  • @PsykoSquid

    Intriguing, can you tell us more, without compromising your position?

  • low tech will always have a niche, good video

  • excellent job man

  • When in the Dutch military I had an officer's position. We have 3 spy stations, with spys located in countries I cannot mention due to confidentiality. Just know China isn't as powerful as we all thought.

  • Nice video.

  • Bravo, but this video didint make number stations scary :D
