code is all alpha characters.

Unlikely it's a 'pirate'.

It might have been M8 and they use 'cut numbers'.

What are 'cut numbers'?

'Cut numbers' substitute alpha characters for numbers. It's an easier quicker
way to send number traffic.

Here is what M8 uses:

0 T
1 A
2 N
3 D
4 U
5 W
6 R
7 I
8 G
9 M
