Although this has been a entertaining thread,  a check with a good friend who 
is a switchboard supervisor at Offutt states that the current switch does not 
offer caller ID display. Additionally, no one has reported a conversation 
like this for they would have worn out that strip of tape playing it for their 
own entertainment.

I have a feeling we've been BS'd

If you must have answers, then go to the following web site and read all 
about the GHFS. 

milaircomms.com/ghfs

Also, while you probably didn't really call Offut AFB demanding answers and 
reminding them of your status as a tax payer, a foul mouthed one at that, 
please be advised that the GHFS is normally manned by active duty military, and 
in 
some cases civilian contractors, who are posted in remote locations around the 
world, not necessarily Nebraska.  They could very well be in Thule, Greenland 
or Ascension Island, etc., and they may be there on unaccompanied tours away 
from their families.  Since there is a war going on, they may not have time to 
drop everything to satisfy your thirst for information.  So, please, don't 
waste thier time by reminding them that you pay their salaries, especially when 
you don't, or our time by BSing us.  Just use your computer to do a simple 
google search and you will find the answers that you need.

A friend of mine decided to fire up his pirate
transmitter on 11175 and asked them for a radio check,
the operator told him his radio was fine but to please
get off the frequency.

I am sure they accept some QRM as I have heard the
fishing boats transmit on there occasionally, but
intentional jamming is another thing.

Nothing wrong with questioning your government, after
all if you think it's looking after your best
interests  you must be watching too many Bush speeches
and/or corporate news channels.

While it is not nice to call anyone an a$$, it's equally rude to utter the 
following:

Oh, here we go again, another political commentary.
Also be advised your 'pirate' friend is in serious
violation of the law. If you had any experience in

Doesn't sound like they were very nice to you at all.  I suggest you contact
the Department of Justice and the Federal Communications Commission and tell
them what you did and how they treated you and I bet they can solve whatever
problems you may be having.  Be sure to go into great detail and let them
know how you feel about it.  They'll get to the bottom of the problem really
fast.  You may want to contact the FBI too, they might be able to help.

Best of luck.

You are joking right? You really should stay away from calling the Air Force 
and asking them about their Global HF system. Its easy to listen to and 
access but the meaning and its mission is pretty Top Secret. Information on 
a theroy of what it's purpose is can be found online, just Google it (GHFS, 
Air Force GHFS, mil air comms, etcAs far as calling them and demanding 
answers and being a rude a$$ it will get you no where fast even if you are 
paying more taxes than Donald Trump.Remember to them you are a nobody.

I love it. He should tell them his friend is Ted Kozinski and he has a  
package for them. This made my mite worthwhile. He also needs to call the CIA  
and 
tell them he heard Cynthia and wants to talk to  her.

I used to send those messages from Offutt and knowing what the status of  
that station is currently in I am betting he was talking to an telephone  
operator at the main base who wouldn't know an EAM if it bit them on the  butt. 
 The 
Global station is 40 miles away form Offutt and half the  population of Offutt 
doesn't know what it is or what it's mission is.

Hi Patrice,

I apologise for the late reply.

The web link you gave had a pretty good explanation of the Iris system - 
basically, it is the name for the entire suite of radios, modems, computers, 
antennas, and so on that the Canadian army has recently deployed.  We use 
Iris radios on HF, VHF, and UHF/SHF for voice (FM and SSB), ALE, and data.  
Any Canadian army transmission you hear is likely to be on an Iris radio - 
there are no special 'Iris' modes that would set a transmission apart from 
one done on another radio.


When the fellow was speaking about 'numbers' stations, I think he was 
referring to encoded military messages (done in three-letter groups called 
'trigrams'), not 'numbers' stations as we know them.  Canada does not have a 
foreign intelligence service.


I know all this because I am a Captain in the Canadian army.  I'm just about 
to deploy to Kandahar, Afghanistan, where I will spend each day working next 
to a stack of Iris radios - patiently waiting until I have some free time 
and can play with my own radios!  I will of course pass on to the WUN and 
Spooks crowd whatever interesting stuff I hear on my WR-G313e and IC-7000.


Cheers,

Dave

(sorry for my bad english)

Hi,
I had a conversation about number stations with a canadian soldier
specialised in encrypted communications. He told me about the Iris system.
Since this system, they use numbers transmissions only if the Iris system
brake down. He also told me that most of number stations transmited in
North america are only trainings for the rookies. He didn't want to tell
me which voice Canada uses, neither the sex nor the language.

After a moment, I had to stop the conversation because he became very
suspicious about me: why do you care about number stations? Do you sell
your recordings and schedules to some people? Do you know it's dangerous
to have these kind of info in your computer? etc

I'm wondering if someone in the spook community had problems with GRC or
CIA or whoever because of his strange hobby?

I'm also wondering if somebody knows how sounds an Iris communication.
Anybody has recordings?

Here's the official site about Iris system:

I think the soldier was referring to military communications.  I can't
imagine how any intelligence agency that recruits its lowest level of grunt
informants from the target population would just hand them their most
sensitive secure communication gear.  It not only almost guarantees the
stuff falling into the wrong hands, but also I doubt that very many people
in positions sensitive enough to have any desired information would really
want to explain why they have some other country's military radio next to
the laptop in their bedroom.
