This is a copy of The Numbers Racket CD-ROM, which I prepared back in 1998. I am presenting it here, unedited, for historical purposes. Obviously most if not all of the information is 'out of date' today, but think of it as a snapshot of what the Spy Numbers scene was like in the late 1990s.

Like what you see here? Help support my work by taking a look at my software , and buy something of interest :) It's all available for download before purchase, so you can try it out.

Enjoy!


Morse Station M12

Morse Station M12

Mode Usually ICW but has been known to use MCW. The call is sent fairly slowly at about 15 WPM but the preamble and messages are usually sent at 30 WPM, single 5 figure groups,although slower and faster speeds have been used. They are constantly changing frequencies and transmission times so it is not worth listing them.The message is sometimes repeated on a further two frequencies.

If the message is sent on the hour then there will be the same message sent at Hour+20 Hour+40, Hour+25 Hour+45, or Hour+30 Hour+50, this depends on length of message and speed sent. Can be found on at any time.

            Call             Preamble          Message     Ending
       749 749 749 000 R5                   No Message
       749 749 749 1 R5    1573 143 1573 143   143x5f   Pause 000 000
The figure 1 after 749 indicates number of messages,2 messages are very rare. There is one message that keeps on being sent, that has been sent for some considerable time. I first logged it in July 1997 but I know it has been logged before this, usually sent to an ID starting with the figure 3. At present being sent to 314. The preamble is 792 66 792 66 and the message is always the same.
