[Spooks] Numbers or pirate?

[Mark Taylor]

I don't know if this is numbers related or related to North American SW
pirate activity, but it's interesting ....

3/5/05 6925 USB;
I tuned down to 6925 just after E 10 went off at 0057, and the CW letter "C"
was being sent continually.  At 0100 "CW" X5, then 5 # sets until 0107.  The
sets ended "BT BT   BT BT".  "C" until 0115 when "CQ" was sent X5, then 5#
sets until 0119.  Ended the same "BT BT   BT BT".  Then off.

There were Spanish speaking fishers on a very near frequency, and I am nod
adept enough at morse code numbers to read it.  (My CW decoded couldn't work
because of the interference.)

I'm not that familiar with the M series ENIGMA stations, but I could not
find anything that matched this in the Enigma 2000 control list.

It might have just been a pirate having fun impersonating a numbers station
... or not.

Any ideas?
