Wisdom Spam

The CIA headquarters in Langley has a sculpture called “kryptos” with four messages written in complex code. Its quite a remarkable piece of art. 3 of the 4 messages has yet been decrypted. Recently the 3rd was broken by a CIA crypto expert in the span of 9 years.

Nah, I’m not saying, that they don’t send any codes or that the numbers are sent with a sensless order.
And well, now you did some research I never knew of. I could swear I didn’t find that on the net two years ago. Okay, my own stupidness :)
I just couldn’t can’t still can’t imagine what use there is for such stations.
I mean okay, there was a time, when you could say: You can be sure that you can find a radio everywhere on this earth, so sending my information via shortwave is a good idea because it’s always possible to receive it.
And today? No cell phones? No notebooks? Allright, radios are cheaper. Uhm, no I take that back. You get cell phones for 1 € :)
So why would some serious institution want to send its information via SW when there are other given possibilities? What does SW offer that a cell phone can’t offer?

Yes, Yes… I know… you are saying that it is actually some sort of code but you think also this is done by “privates” as a weird form of “passion for kryptoids”… and I was remarking that the schedules are too heavy and require too much of an effort… so they really don’t make it look like someone who wants to say “hello”… and not even like a dialogue… that would look much less regular.

Not a real lot… but there are certain advantages :)
First of all a SW broadcast does not involves nothing else than the original transmitter… while mobile telephones they need a whole structure of repetitors to work properly and when you want to remain “hidden” and “misterious” you are supposed to leave few/none footprints instead of spreading news of your passage all over the repetitors logs…
For the very same reason I’d say that it’s much more expensive to do (and then cover up) a rocket mission with orbital deployment of a new satellite with his own communication system… rather than creating (and covering up) a single, small SW radio station somewhere…

Well done dblue :D you found the secret code in my level1 encrypted post :lol:

Well when listening to them, just hearing “Yankee, Hotel, Foxtrot” this is definately military spelling but what the abbreviation YHF would stand for in that case is a mistery.
shortwave is for sure to reach a very long distance but this is how spying was done through morse in the early days as well:To get far and being very hard to detect.

Further on, they seem only intresting samples to spice up your song with, nothing more :P (I don’t want to know the message)

Goddamn, what the hell is wrong with this guy? :lol:
He felt like spamming the whole forum with this!?
What a reaction, man… he really does NOT likes cyberwax’s stuff
