"Commander Bunny for president, Give the nation a hare transplant" & "the leader of the rodent revolution"... more accurate prediction than Nostradamus 🤣

[@RichardGilmoreDronetech]

Soon as I heard E and T was the most common letters, I couldn't help but point my finger and say....ET phone Home. 😂.

[@bexxy629]

I imagine there is no real purpose, just feels like a number station and radio enthusiast memeing on people, making references to the famous green sleaves and rabbit brodcasts. In a good way, this feels like the exact nerdy and obscure stuff you would expect from a radio enthusiast.😂

[@binky_bun]

As a furry (a blue and white rabbit) and a ham who once worked as a volunteer at the national hamfest wearing a rabbit onesie I'd say you're not wrong there. Alas as much as I wish it had been, it was not me.

Wonder if anyone used the numbers from the number station as lottery numbers 😂

[@TheMajkla]

I did once but they were numbers from the EAMs. Won bugger all though 😂

If someone were to win the lottery using numbers from a station, I think it would only be fair to do something nice for Lewis. Maybe a nice car, like a Mercedes convertible.

[@iviewthetube]

A lot of puzzle books carry those types of cryptograms.

[@mbak7801]

A substitution code is the type used by 8 year olds. I know I used them at about that age. They are very simple to translate and no serious person would ever use them. With that in mind the transmitter is probably a teenager messing around. DF signals can be located using DF of the ground wave. Eventually the person will grow up and it will stop.

[@kaitlyn__L]

And for 20 years there have been free websites and local utilities for “rot-X encryption”. Very easy to automate this and the voice from a raspberry pi and a transmitter nowadays

You should do a shortwave radio tier list.

[@csrrjefflloyd6496]

Hello, A thought occurred to me of another use of the term: Monkey Boy. It was used in the movie, Buckeroo Bonzai. One of the characters called nearly everyone that term. This may not have any relation to your video’s subject but I thought i’d pass it along in case it could be of some use.

[@alkempton1512]

Interesting as always

[@Graham-ce2yk]

Nice to (a) see someone using a coding scheme other than A=1, B=2, etc & (b) somone using frequency analysis to crack it. Most of these amateur numbers stations want their messages to be read. Infamously the first Zodiac cypher was a simple substitution cypher was cracked by amateurs. However the second cypher the serial killer created was so complex that his cheeky "I hope you're having lots of fun in trying to catch me..." message took decades rather than weeks to solve meaning that the sender didn't get the reaction he doubtless hoped to get.

Much like Bob Holness didn't play sax on Baker St, Henry VIII didn't write Greensleeves!

[@gloomyvale3671]

I’m guessing you are not 500 years old and heard about the true writer of the tune, Bob Holness did indeed play sax on Baker Street, Holness is the most prolific sax player, he even trained Bill Clinton to play when Clinton visited South Africa. Holness was also credited with the creation of life on earth and the invention of the clock, he is also linked to the creation of musical youth. Holness is also well known in the Vatican, often advising popes dating back 1000 years. Holness also enjoys fracking, syphoning stocks of both North sea oil and gas. Holness is even mentioned in classic literature, Shakespeare wrote about how Holness defeated a cadre of witches, numbering in the thousands. Holness also wrote a Haynes Manuel on how to bust blocks, Holness now resides in Egypt somewhere in the valley of the kings plotting his next venture into history.

@@paulsengupta971 indeed he can he was the world record holder of completely consuming a packet of fruit pastels without chewing once. Holness also holds the record for eating 33 shredded wheat bricks, Beefy Botham said it was god like he never in his life seen a Human consume so much wheat in 1 sitting. Holness also holds the record for the number of sheep sheared 1200 in 5 minutes, Holness also created pasteurisation, Pasteur was trying to freeze milk, Holness snuck in while he was outside smoking and turned the Bunsen burner on, the ancient Egyptians talk of a man who came from the sky with the means of moving large blocks over vast distances. If you look carefully in Taxi Driver you can see Holness in the background, he had a massive pimp business going, he controlled all of Manhattan, Holness was seen as a good if strict leader, if you were honest he was good but get on the wrong side of him and he would dispatch you with concrete boots. Someone said Holness was on a tv show but I can’t find any information on that so I don’t think that’s true.

Being able to decode the message surely had to indicate someone like Commander Bunny being behind the message. Otherwise, someone having acess to schemes using eliptical curves or modular arithmetic or other incredibly hard to break schemes would not have provide a breakable cipher.

Wonder if generative AI might decode some of these cyphers.

Those Cesar ciphers? Most probably. More sophisticated ciphers like 'we don't know the book, neither the chapter, neither the x word in y row', those, no. Even if you found a book where the numbers would make out a readable sentence, you can't be sure there is no second book with another meaning

[@foobarf8766]

Not generative. They are LSTM (parrots). But integer sequencing models, maybe yes.

[@kaitlyn__L]

@@foobarf8766 “AI” noise reduction algorithms are good at catching-out generated noise, AKA statistical skews, but one supposes most encryption carefully looks at their key entry now so that probably wouldn’t do much.

[@RCAvhstape]

It seems like a lot of effort to make a joke broadcast that isn't even that funny. Risking legal penalties for it doesn't seem a good trade, either. I think the number pirates could be more creative. Make the messages play out some kind of story, maybe, or even some sort of scavenger hunt.

I seem to be unable to comment on this video. Why?

[@scottlarson1548]

Havana Moon, the mysterious man who published several cheap pamphlets on number stations in the 1980s said he came across a few very amateur number stations (usually in Spanish) in which all of the numbers were 1-26 and that always suggested a decodable message. In one case the code (if it could be called one) was simply A = 26, B= 25, C= 24, and so on.
