ALERT: Secret Transmission Detected From North Korea

As tensions escalate along the Korean peninsula and new and alarming element has come into play. Within hours of South Korean news sources breaking a story that several Sang-Ho class submarines had disappeared from their North Korean bases, a ham radio operator named Tim in the Midwest here in the United States picked up a “numbers station” broadcasting on the same frequency as “The Voice of Korea” propaganda station. 

What makes this even more interesting is that at the tail end of the numbers transmission there was a long duration digital transmission as well. So why is this important and alarming?

There are several reasons why this new development is particularly alarming.  The first being the existence of the numbers station coming online shortly after the submarines put to sea, but more importantly is the digital transmission apparently tacked onto the end of the transmission and the ramifications of that transmission.  Numbers Station?

Throughout the Cold War numbers stations were used to convey encrypted messages to covert operatives.  The station would come online broadcast a series of numbers, possibly multiple times, then disappear into the darkness. 

Those numbers were used as coded messages to be decrypted on the other end by the in country operative.  Examples of these numbers stations can be found at The Conet Project Archives.  

So what makes this number station significant is the proximity in timing to the disappearance of the San-Ho class submarines, as well as the digital transmission.  It is important to point out that the  Sang-Ho submarines in question were effectively purpose built for covert insertion of small teams of North Korean Maritime Commandos who are part of North Korea’s much lauded Special Operations Force. 

So at this moment there is a covert North Korean force apparently heading for South Korea.
