This is
so out of date.
As we all know messages are now passed on FR ... in responses on those "IBTZ" threads and as keywords.

So out of date? Sending coded messages over the radio started around, what was that thing again? Oh, yeah, World War 1.

Mine says "Bhurma Shave".

Back when I was a kid (1970's), I used to be into Shortwave radio. I used to find and listen to these things all the time, they gave me the creeps, it was cool! At the time, I thought they were secret coded messages, but almost in jest. Later found out that I was right. Kewl man!

"I can't imagine who else would waste the time in front of a microphone reading numbers" I had a job for a while as an announcer at WWV but I finally quit, because I couldn't stand the hours.
