I'll keep trying. I want to hear him/her already!

I'll be listening at 1200 on 16084, 15682 and 14487. Let's see what we
can hear
if we have propagation.

Heard here at 1200 on all 3 frequencies. Message header 80431.


Also heard at 1300 on 16084, 15682 and 14487. Message header 44800.

Untrue. It merely depends on what frequencies LP is using, and the propagation
conditions at the time from Cyprus, the supposed location of LP.

I've been hearing them on all frequencies used since start-up this morning at
1200.

The ONLY time I might have a problem here with one or more of the frequencies
used is if LP shifts to something like 5xxx MHz in my early afternoon, when the
signal might not propagate.

OK!

Finally heard her on 15682 but, I had to use the 4Khz AM filter to hear it.
Very, very faint.
I could make out the tune well but the numbers were hard to recognize. I
turned off AGC and adjusted the RF gain. Need to use headphones for sure.
But finally! I heard it. Looks like I need to use the 4Khz filter.

Thanks. I find it amazing I'm picking this up from England. I wonder what
receiver these use themselves to get the code. I'm also surprised no one has
broken the code yet to some degree.

Actually, the transmission is coming from Cyprus, or possibly some other Eastern
Mediterranean site, but most likely from Cyprus.

That's still nice and far away though. Ever hear any CIA transmissions?

( & Congratulations, BTW )

- I don't think the transmitters in England; I think in Cypress
( Do A google search on Linconshire Poacher )

And , they're probably using a " One Time Pad" snyched for a specific day ..

probably short messages anyway; no time to have a real conversation...

Maybe the following is out of date?

From http://home.luna.nl/~ary/lp.htm

"On the 27th February 2000 the Cyprus Broadcasting Corporation (CyBC)
broadcast a TV story on Numbers Stations. With help from Cypriot radio
amateurs, reporter George Georgiou managed to prove, using signal strength
and DF, that Lincolnshire Poacher is transmitting from a RAF Unit in the SBA
in Akrotiri. But, as DF showed, there could be another two, smaller
transmitters somewhere in the Middle East.

The main transmission, though, emanates from the RAF Unit in Akrotiri."
