[Spooks] What Happened to the Rules ??? (AKA a pre-New Year's SHOCK on HM01 for 12/31/2013)

2013-12-31 Thread shawn fahrer
Visit http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/spooks to unsubscribe from this

As you may know (thanks to World of Radio and DX Listening Digest), I (with 
Glenn Hauser's help) publicized a few rules of engagement for HM01 (the Cuban 
Lady Numbers Station which can be found at frequencies from 5855 to 13435 and 
beyond on SW). Those rules were FLOUTED earlier today (starting with the 
first number set on the first broadcast heard today -- 13435 @ 07 UT) -- the 
broadcast began with 56792 (shocking enough that the first number for 
12/30/13 was 80583, this number isn't even close to the expected 80584). The 
entire sequence is below:

56792 (my first heard 9-- a nuevo series triggering a nuevo set of 
sequences for a nuevo ano -- new year-- or so it seems to me)
03633
37674
18655 (note the three middle numbers in groups 2 - 4 read together are 666, a 
number which has had sinister connotations for two millenia; perhaps this is a 
danger sign for the new year)
62113
66163 (almost another '666'; danger upon danger?)

Almost ALL of the rules I thought I knew were broken today:
1) None of these new numbers ends with a 1, even though they are all new 
numbers. 
2) We have a sequence featuring a 9 (I did mention that 9 -- nueve sounds a 
lot like nuevo, thus could be used in a 'nuevo' sequence [for a 'nuevo' year 
with 'nuevo' rules], so this may save this 'rule'. 
3) The broadcast was surprisingly short (25 minutes per segment instead of the 
usual 27 minutes -- timed based on the second segment of the 07 UT broadcast, 
which ran from 727 UT  - 752 UT after a nearly 4 minute break from the end of 
the first transmission)

There are three possibilities for why this broadcast was what it was:
1) The Cuban Spy Network was put on high alert based on events such as the 
suicide bombings in Russia, Cuba's long time ally going back to the 1950s OR
2) These programs are run on a tape loop after they are put together by 
persons unknown -- someone pulled out an OLD tape loop and #1 is simply too 
much paranoia on my part OR
3) These programs are run live (after all, there has to be SOMEONE around to 
change the transmission frequency and perhaps the direction of radiation) and 
whoever puts these programs together is aware of my getting the rules out 
into the public airwaves and print (via World of Radio and DX Listening 
Digest), so they wanted to show that I really don't know their rules after 
all -- just a little tweak to show that THEY are in charge. (Or is this 
assuming too much of HM01's staff: that they actually listen to what one lone 
guy with a cheap radio can come up with about them and try to show that he’s 
not correct…)

We'll see later on if we go back to the 12/30 numbers, these numbers, or a new 
set of numbers for January 1, 2014. Consider this post a potential warning for 
Cuban DXers (if no one else)-- if the rules of the game have been changed, 
those of us on the outside maybe totally rendered unable to play the game 
(spoken in tones of Triple H's entry music -- especially since he is now 'The 
Authority' in the WWE) 

Happy New year to all from

No 0 either... curious.

I confirm your Rx of an HM01 ID bearing a 9 (despite the unusually heavy QRM) 
on 5855 at 05:00 2014-01-01.  10345KHz at 06:00 was much clearer: 56792 03633 
37674 18655 62113 66163.

(Does my enthusiasm for 2014 show?)
 
3) The broadcast was surprisingly short (25 minutes per segment instead
of the usual 27 minutes -- timed based on the second segment of the 07
UT broadcast, which ran from 727 UT  - 752 UT after a nearly 4 minute
break from the end of the first transmission)

HM01's airtime seems to be determined by the clock rather than by the content. 
Perhaps now they are repeating messages n times within x amount of time instead 
of repeating messages however many times they can within x amount of time.

Then again, when Pedro oopses, the best laid plans o' mice and men go aft 
a'glay. 

3) These programs are run live (after all, there has to be SOMEONE
around to change the transmission frequency and perhaps the direction
of radiation) and whoever puts these programs together is aware of my
getting the rules out into the public airwaves and print (via World
of Radio and DX Listening Digest), so they wanted to show that I really

THEY are in charge. (Or is this assuming too much of HM01's staff:
that they actually listen to what one lone guy with a cheap radio can
come up with about them and try to show that he’s not correct…)

That would require so much contingency planning that I think it highly 
improbable - especially when we consider Pedro's oops record.

We'll see later on if we go back to the 12/30 numbers, these numbers,
or a new set of numbers for January 1, 2014. Consider this post a
potential warning for Cuban DXers (if no one else)-- if the rules of

rendered unable to play the game (spoken in tones of Triple H's entry
music -- especially since he is now 'The Authority' in the WWE) 

Well, it sure ain't Queen's Play the Game.  If they play The Show Must Go 
On as they come on the air... ;-P


Happy New year to all from

Feliz año.
