  • This is a short video of the Eddystone 730/4 receiver in use receiving a Numbers Station. The Receiver as of 16th July 2020 is for sale on Ebay in the UK.
    The reason the BFO pulled was due to a low emission valve in the bfo. Ther was no drift when the valve was replaced.

    Have you tried deciphering it?

      Hi Tom - thanks for your interest...I posted this publicly as I was selling the receiver and wished to demonstrate it to a potential purchaser! The decrypt would be a incredibly difficult process. The recipient was very likely using a one time pad...virtually indecipherable...

    I imagine you are too busy to do this... but I have found that I like interacting with you. Very few people know the details of what you are sharing here so, if you wanted, you could post short vids from time to time... just defining terms and showing examples and your traffic would increase as young people would want to learn at the dribble.

      Hi Tom...I've lots of video snippets I could upload but the workflow to post to YT takes an age meaning other things must take priority. Currently restoring a 1950s AM /CW transmitter and have a mountain of work thereafter including jobs on 3 vintage vehicles and a house!

    How do you know it's a number station and not a regular amateur? Because the frequency doesn't occur in regular amateur bandplans? It's neither in 40m nor 60m band.
    6.76 MHz is below the 40m band lowest freq of 7.00 MHz. and above the highest freq 5.36 MHz of the 60m band. All the best, Rob

      RobWhittlestone Hi Rob - not sure if that was a question ...as you appeared to have answered it yourself! As you say the transmission is outside the Amateur bands. I am a Radio Amateur. As I say it could be a training station (French militaire) or a genuine numbers station. My money is on the latter as the French Station is normally elsewhere....

      @@vacuumfireradio253 Haha! First I was irritated by your claim that it was a numbers station without a reason then did the research and found the reason! My father was G3JMW and ZC4MW so learnt a bit from him. All the best, Rob in Switzerland
