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 Obviously most if not all of the information is 'out of date' today, but think of it as a snapshot of what the Spy Numbers scene was like in the late 1990s.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


Backwards Music / Whales

Backwards Music / Whales

This station transmits rising and falling audio tones that sound somewhat like whale song. It also has been heard with other bizzare sounds, originally incorrectly described as backwards music - and that original name for the station has stuck.

Sometimes RTTY is also heard in between the "music" and "whale song", leading some to believe that the station's purpose is to hold the frequency in between data transmissions.

Frequencies used by XM:

5178
6695
