Covert Networks
Number stations: Radio networks that broadcast codes, popular theories are that they are used for espionage purposes or for drug smuggling.
One-time pads: indecipherable coding systems for eavesdroppers. Often used to encrypt number station broadcasts.
Automated reel-to-reel tape recorders: timed to play broadcasts at certain times of the day. Occasionally they "fail", and broadcast the code at an incorrect speed, or broadcast the wrong code entirely.
Re-watch: The Conversation by Francis Ford-Coppola - Listening/Paranoia/Cold War/Nixon/Espionage.
Radio as a filesharing medium? Send binary as audio. 25-10-11
