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 Obviously most if not all of the information is 'out of date' today, but think of it as a snapshot of what the Spy Numbers scene was like in the late 1990s.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 Stations

Morse Stations

The Morse Code - A tutorial on morse code, with audio clips of all of the commonly used more characters.

Notes for Morse Numbers Stations:

Notes  
R4= Repeat for 4 minutes   
5F= 5 Figure paired groups
197x3= Repeated 3 times   
// Parallel Frequency


Some numbers stations (The Cuban station M8,for example) use cut numbers, a system where short letters are used to replace the relatively long digits, making it quicker and easier to copy long strings of numbers.

3	U
4	W
5	R
6	I
