Well I had a few days off being rather unwell and by Saturday morning I was bored bored bored. I needed to code. So I finally started a project to write some encryption/decryption software. Both to learn cryptography and to excercise some mental muscle. A little while later, I had a decent command line based One time pad encoder/decoder. Have a go here: Webweasels Priyom OTP software Its only a rough draft for now, but has two encryption modes and some other features: Encrypt with and wi...

I've been monitoring Pip (S30) since late October and now as January draws to a close it is time for me to publish my findings. In this report I'll present my main conclusions along with a little research on Pip's history, purpose and location. So let me present to you the fruit of over 1900 hours of monitoring, 27 pages of Pip-fueled mayhem - The Pip Dossier! --- Tucana tucana@priyom.org

Ok we were never really away... But personally Ive had a few things going on in my private life (changing jobs, family xmas) that have prevented me from really contributing to priyom in the last few months. Ive effectivily taken the last 3 months off from priyom and radio. But the team have been keeping the site up to date, but have needed some assitance from me to bring the 2012 pages online. So, I am back and ready to inject some new life into the priyom project, were planning a podcast s...

Please open this post by clicking on the topic (audio recordings don't show on the blog main page). It's been about a week since my quick update and I promised to write a proper post soon. I had hoped that I would have more answers by now, but Pip changed it's inner workings and it will take a while to fully understand the new system. However the new system is quite complicated so it definitely deserves a blog post of it's own. This post will continue from where my previous big p...

This quick update covers new content from the 19th of November onwards. I won't go into the content of Dlya messages in this post as more data is needed for further research. However the message pools are changing and it will probably take some time to figure out the grand system that all these rotations adhere to. In this monitoring period 19 new messages have been intercepted, a real 8С1Щ message and 18 Dlyas, all apart from one of them scheduled. November 19-26th Pip night frequency sta...

Please open this post by clicking on the topic (audio recordings don't show on blog main page). For background information please check my previous post.   One late night, not so long ago, Gwraspe was transcribing Pip messages I had recorded and I was working on this blog post, updating schedules based on my notes and observations. We were exchanging a few words here and there about the Pip, until Gwraspe said that he noticed a pattern in Dlya messages - and indeed there was! ...

Hey shortwave fans I was interviewed by Russia Today a few weeks back, were guessing that the Wired article promoted interest from the Russian media and RT wanted to get in on the UVB-76 action. There is an online article about the buzzer and a short news segment. So for those of you curious what I look like have a watch:
