Number stations?
Anyone heard of these?

Was listning to the radio last night, when they started playing recordings from these radio stations, was a bit scary, a weird nursery rhyme like tune, followed by a series of numbers in German.

The presenters were saying how these number stations mostly operate sporadically on shortwave, and are a foolproof way of governments communicating with their spies.

Just thought I'd share this fairy irrelavant, but interesting point with you

Heh on the radio last night they started being silly like that, went off air for a whole minute and pretended their backup CD came on.

Then they wouldnt talk about the subject for the rest of the night..

Don't be daft, spies indeed.
