/ps/ In case you aren't very familiar with shortwave radio, the Havana Moon
     name really isn't a joke - it's a name I have used for many years and
      under which I have published two books and countless articles for
     several of the major magazines in the radio field, including Monitoring
     Times and Popular Communications.  I also write for The Intelligence
     Newsletter.
 
     Numbers transmissions are something that have been around for 25 years -
     and which have mystified shortwave listeners since they were first
     heard.  Need more info?  Let me know.

     on covert radio, SIGINT, espionage, intelligence and counter-intelli-
