Actually you don't even need one, you can play around with that
University of Twente WebSDR, and wherever you are, you will have a
"European" signal on your computer.

Many years ago, Enigma was a nice, proper useful group. From those days
we inherited the classification of number stations (E01, etc.). If they
decided to implode by having only a dozen of people on the group, who
cares. It's a pity though, because I remember how things were once.

About their silly copyright, they even have someone saying on their
web-page that a "gentleman of the legal profession" who belongs to their
group sent an e-mail saying their copyright exists, etc.

I am not a "gentleman of the legal profession", I am a lawyer. Yes,
copyright "always" exists, it belongs to the creator of the intellectual
property. Enigma2000 is not a legal entity, it is not registered
anywhere. There is no board of directors, there is no legal
representative. It publishes contributions by individual people, who
themselves are reproducing information broadcast by someone else.

If I had their schedules, I would publish them at once, just to annoy
them :-D Then what, they would go to court and ask for damages? What is
the amount of direct damage such publication would have caused? Zero.
The amount of lost profits? Zero. The damages they'd get? Zero.

This, unfortunately, is the problem with internet groups. The group
founder can just shut down the group, delete its files, and it's all gone.

Funny, though, that Enigma2000 don't mind using the information on THIS
list but think they are too good to help other people.

They'll eventually just die out. And who cares, really, if they don't
help at all.
