A "radio broadcast" by a spy numbers station, designated E07, believed to originate in Russia. This transmission is remarkable in its unusual length of 1 hour straight!

The reason for such a long transmission were the messages relayed over to a spy this link is set for. Agent 641 received two messages, one consisting of 293 5-digit groups, while the second one had 266 of them. This totals to 559 groups. Certainly a lot to write down!

Why had he receive so many (long) messages? In fact, there is a lot going on concerning Russia, its diplomacy and military activities, from diverting of Russian foreign-based diplomats to possible military activities in Syria.

According to a numbers stations schedule available at http://priyom.org​ , this is a repeat of 17:00​ UTC broadcast on 14603 kHz, for which a 20-minute-long window had been planned. But due to the length of this transmission, instead of 17:20​ UTC, the repeat on 13403 kHz started as late as 18:04​. Another repeat that should have followed them up at 17:40​, actually kicked off at 19:08​ UTC on 12103 kHz.

Back in my day, such was a game played by KGB and CIA.

My recollection was the CIA effort was strictly a game, the Russians may or may not have had a use for such.

2-8-5-7-1: I remember that one. In Russian that means "The chair is against the wall."

3-9-5-9-1: "John has a long mustache."

It was. By the time the intel went up a few notches, the higher-ups wouldn't have listened to it if it was the voice of God.

Anyway, it kept a lot of sharp, highly motivated tech geeks out of the civilian market.

The smart, maladjusted sociopaths pretty much went into HUMINT or upper echelon management of the company.
