I really need to post more often - new well old but new station

18 February 2014

I really really do. So much has happened here in the last 2 weeks or so that I forget half of it. I'm about half done with podcast 14, should be out end of this week I hope. Many many new members have joined up with us, great to have you here guys. For those who follow the buzzer you might be aware of Peter from the russian radio scanner forum, who has been following the buzzer even longer than we have. Peter dropped into the IRC the other day and has joined the group. It's great to have P...

Podcast episode 13 - The lost episode

04 February 2014

Hey podcast fans. We recorded this episode in March 2012, but it never got to the post production stage. I went looking for it the other day and found it buried deep within the internet. The team had a listen and we all agreed it was worth publishing, even though its now 2 years out of date. Its completly unedited, so do expect a very raw podcast. It has not had the 20 hours or so of post production work that I normally put into the episodes. However, its well worth a listen. I have also ...

Site Redesign Ongoing

03 February 2014

Good afternoon, everyone! 4D here. As you most definately see, I'm working on a bit of a design change for Priyom. It's not super beautiful right now, but this is a gradual process - I promise the site will look better than ever in one...two...three...four months/years...I hope...crosses fingers. I've been tediously working all day to find something that fits the site.  My main goal here is to make a dark, foreboding, mysterious environment - as one would expect for numbers stations! ...

Priyom 2014 - New podcast

03 February 2014

Greetings all Priyom has some new life in 2014, something we have been discussing for a while, but we actually have put some effort in this time. Last night we recorded a new podcast! Its been 2 years since our last one (Which was never published, but will be up soon) So you can look forward to episode 14 in a week or so once I am done with the editing work. We want to keep the high standards up for our podcast, post production is difficult and time consuming but well worth it. The "Lost ...

The NSA are watching you (Us)

14 August 2013

Greetings shortwave fans. Every now and then we get a burst of new people into the IRC channel, usually due to us being linked on 4chan etc. I was curious about a recent surge in traffic to the site and the IRC, so did a little googling. I found this: http://www.nsa.gov/research/tnw/tnw201/article8.shtml If you scroll to the cited sources at the end, there we are. We had assumed that the NSA was already aware of us of course (as well as other security services) but we had also assumed ...

OK, the show MUST go on - so it will!

30 July 2013

Achtung! Внимание! Figyelem! Attention! ¡Atención!   So as you can see in the previous two posts from Web Weasel, Priyom.org will be adding a couple of new sections to the website. I welcome these additions. You will also note that the blazing flame which once burnt in Weasel's heart is now but the flame of a candle and so he will be focusing more on the two new sections of the website. Things have gone the other way for me, I've lately regained my large interest in shortwa...

Future of priyom.org?

26 July 2013

What is the future of priyom.org? Well, my personal passion for Number Stations has ebbed. 2 Years of intense tracking of stations, producing podcasts, making this site has burnt me out on the topic as a whole. I still enjoy listening, but overall management of things got too much. I took too much on and things became work rather than fun. Moving forwards where does that leave us? Priyom has a wonderfull community based around our IRC channel. Radio is still a much discussed topic, but ma...

Migration complete, backend db is working again

18 January 2013

Hello Shortwave fans Time to bore you with IT stuff. The backend database is back up and running, so the messages pages will work now. We got the DNS records sorted, but the webserver had cached the entry. So I recompiled priyom.org's cache code and uploaded it, problem solved. If anyone is curious, priyom.org is a shining example of collaboration between the Linux and Windows world. Our front end is a .NET 4.0 C# based website, our backend is a Linux/MySql/Python system. We use XML and...

Backend database down for now

18 January 2013

Hello Shortwave fans. The site will be working, but none of our numberstations pages will display logged messages right now. We are migrating the backend webservice but the DNS records have not applied properly for the website host. So a support ticket is raised and we are waiting on them... Hopefully back soon/ 73 Webweasel
