Green Mountain Numbers Station.
Just in case you guys are wondering what the "Hidden" transmission is coming out of Green Mountain, It's a Numbers Station which apparently gives the co-ordinates to Green Mountain.

If you don't know what Numbers Stations are, they are used by Intelligence Agencies to transmit codes to operatives in the field who use 1 time match books to decipher the transmission which tells them what their next mission is, or relays vital intel too them in the field.

There are 2 famous cases of Numbers Stations being heard on FM channels. The Lincolnshire Poacher is perhaps the worlds most famous case of an operational Numbers Station broadcast and it had a "Sister" broadcast too called "Cherry Ripe".

It's easy enough to find refrences to Numbers Stations, if your interested in that kind of thing, you can find all you really need to know about them at;

And now I'm probably on someones watch list...

lol.

Lol, Normally... I don't ♥♥♥♥ about with this kind of ♥♥♥♥... It's way out of my field of expertise but there's just something about hearing those numbers over the air... Curiosity killed the cat so to speak. You can't help but be curious about certain thing's.

The numbers Mason, the numbers! Sorry just had to joke. It's probably just an easter egg the devs are playing with.

They are pretty cool to hear. There is some wierd stuff on some of them. Listen for the binary signals too, there are some free programs that will translate them into images for you.

At one point in time you know, they - YES, the infamous THEY, cracked Russian codes because the Russian's broke protocol and kept using the same codes over and over again rather than burning the match books and changing the codes like they were supposed too.

LoL I can't tell if you are serious, but it wouldn't surprise me. They have been attempting and succeeding somewhat at monitering all electronic communications coming in and out of their country and internet for some time now.

If only we knew the true extent of some of the things that they were capable of... We'd probably never sleep soundly again. Our freedoms come at a price, always have, always will.

Oh yeah, it was released that they had been trying to track terrorist groups that had supposedly been using WoW and the like to talk shop and make plans. I believe they were outed with the Snowden stuff.

I thought they were playing Battlefield when that occurred? I did hear stories about that instance.

Problem is that no one is watching the watchers and that price may very well need to be paid again soon enough. If you stop and think about it...this is one ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up world we live in nowadays and it doesn't matter which side of the pond you're from anymore.

The truth is that even our "masters" have "masters". Even Obama and the like answer to someone, he's only a political puppet at the end of the day.
