Re: [DX-CHAT] Number station
GA Ron - I believe that you are "off-base" on this one and it is highly unlikely that the NSA told you or even suggested that you "mind your own business." It is suggested that you research exactly what the "NSA" is all about. Your intercept may have seemed important to you. However, don't sell the NSA short...Believe me. 73, Jay/AF2C At 08:37 AM 8/29/03 -0700, you wrote: Years ago I copied a Russian ship sending coded letter traffic inside the 15m band.

With an attitude like that then the jerks deserve what they get or NOT get. How about 100 ham stations copy this traffic and mail it to: National Security Agency 9800 Savage Road, Fort George Meade, MD 20755-6000 Give frequency/time and any callsign you hear. I think NSA has forgotten cw as a means of communication and are now involved with internet/sat phone intercepts. Ron, k6ur

Re: [DX-CHAT] Number station
Hi All, Just about every morning I hear on 30 meters a Numbers station that sends 5 letter groups at about 17 WPM. It's on 10126.00 and peaks 50DB over S9 here. Today had some QSB so it might not be local or perhaps my frontend is melting. It's within the band that we share with other services, could it be spy or commertial traffic? Take a listen about 11Z Dave, K4SVAsheville, NC
