Number stations are short wave radio stations that broadcast a series of numbers, bleeps or encoded messages reportedly to spies during the Cold- War era. However there is no proof whatsoever to what purpose they serve. The codes that were emitted by the radios were said to only be able to be translated that day, as the source of the code or the ‘crack’ would often change. These are real and can be found throughout the internet. They cannot be traced and never have.
The code 15728 repeated over and over again is one of the most famous number station recordings available. No one to this day knows what that or any others mean.
The Russians, Cubans, English, Americans and Chinese had the number stations. However no one will claim them. No country …show more content…
At the start of The Cheque Lady recording can be heard a short tune. This short tune is repeated over and over again, tens of years on end. That is supposedly for spies to recognise when they ha ve tuned into the correct frequency and to keep on that radio setting. These are called ‘place holders’.
The most famous place holder is called ‘The Buzzer’ which was recorded in 1982 which may ha ve been on air since 1976. The buzzing sound occurs about 25 times every minute and a Russian voice can be heard every once in a while along with a very faint recording of Swan Lake. No
Prizes here guessing who that Number Station belonged to.
The Number Stations always broadcast on the same frequency and never changed their unique place holder. Essentially the same sound of The Buzzer placeholder was going constantly from at least 1982-2010 when it ended. In 2010 when The Buzzer ended a message was played over and over again saying ‘Mikael, Dimitri, Xena, Boris’.
There are other theories other than the Cold- War spy network, such as drug smuggling and crime networks. However the frequency of interruptions in the place holders coincide exactly with large government and international events.
There is an English Number Station dubbed ‘The Lincolnshire Poacher’, google the recording and then Concert Band will never be the same
