That's just not the way it works.
I'm not saying it's real, but it could be a simple code. Remember the
days when agents were to listen to news reports and if the third
item was about a specific subject, they were to proceed? See the
movie the "Fourth Protocol" for an example.
Since I could not see the receiver well enough to determine the mode,
it could have been the "go" or "abort" code for a deep cover agent
with no equipment. For example, if it were sent in AM a simple
pocket shortwave radio would do it.
It definately lacks sophistication, so I doubt it was a "secret agency"
that did it, but it could be an amateur operation or a drug dealer.
The whole "agent" thing may have been meaningless, the real message may
have been "kenny" (a location) and "vegemite sandwich" (a product).
Having grown up in the U.S. in the 1960's, I can remember many slang
terms for drugs, drug parephenalia and delivery that crept in to
the language to avoid intervention from the police and parents.
We've all become far too enamoured of the idea that every numbers station
is the Mossad (Israeli equivalent of the CIA/KGB). Someone once asked
me to help him monitor numbers stations from here in Jerusalem.
I decided not to, as being an Israeli citizen, if they were indeed
the Mossad, it would not be in my best interest to do so.
