Default 9063KHz

At roughly 8GMT Wednesday, this station was broadcasting an
unmodulated AM carrier at 9063KHz, with periodic bursts of data. Most
of the hits on the frequency indicate it used to be a Cuban numbers
frequency.

And according to recent reports, it still is being used for numbers, most likely
via Cuba.

Apparently, whatever they are doing, they are now doing it digitally.

Perhaps, the report I saw was for MCW on 9063 at 0800 on Wednesday, also others
earlier in the week, some using AM.

Certainly not MCW. I will make it a point to record it next time.
They broadcasted a dead carrier most of the time, then data bursts
over AM. That is, I never saw the signal strength drop. So I have to
assume this is meant to be received on pretty low tech gear, like a
cheap shortwave radio into a soundcard.

At about 8GMT on Friday, they did xmit MCW, then some digital mode.
