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:

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 ...

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...

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...

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...

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/

Hello shortwave fans.
Well, I finally got back into listening to my radio after about
a year of doing other things and after logging a few stations I had
a look at our pages.
I was very dissapointed to see that after having the website up
for 3 years we had not really made any progress on something as
simple as displaying the frequency of the station we had
logged.
So this morning Horrorcat and I were determined to get this
working and we now have, the pages are updated.
Finally! It only...

Hi,
I just wanted to note, that i am going through archives of buzzers
recordings and updating the logs pages for the buzzer. so you might
want to check on them, if you wanted to do some work and found
pages neglected.

What a coincidence! Moments after writing the previous blog post
about a breakdown on S30 (the Pip) I turned on the radio and tuned
to S32 (Squeaky Wheel, a station strongly connected to S30 and also
S28) and it also endured a breakdown of it's own! This
one, however, doesn't break down in the same wind-down fashion of
S28 & S30 but instead the channel marker repeatedly turns on
and off in a sporadic manner. This malfunction occured between
0113z and 0239z, a whole hour and 26 ...

OK so I wasn't expecting to do two blogposts tonight but
something well worth noting has just been brought to our attention.
Argonn, a member of the Priyom group, has recently been
monitoring S30 quite intensively and in his recording tonight he
has stumbled upon a real gem.
The Pip, channel marker of S30, broke down tonight (November
24th 2012) at 2309z. This is interesting enough on it's own but
extra relevance is brought about by the way in which the breakdown
occured. Just like we'...
