E10 Mossad HF Numbers Stations - SK!

Our good friend Ary Boender is reporting on the UDXF newsgroup that after about 45 years, the well known Israeli Mossad numbers (Enigma E10) transmissions have disappeared from the HF spectrum. The stations have been silent since March 1st. Callsigns include YHF, CIO, VLB, etc.

According to the March 2011 E2K newsletter the night of Feb 28-Mar 1 was the last time a E10 transmission was logged. Despite intensive monitoring of all the current and previous known frequencies since, nothing has been heard.

So where has this activity moved to? Satellite? Landlines? Has the E10 transmissions gone digital? Is the E2K editorial staff theory that the extra traffic that has been observed over in Europe on the HEW ALE network related? There just is no way to know at this time.

But I can say that this is truly an end of an era. I still remember all the legwork that Havana Moon and others did many years ago to confirm the locations of these transmissions and the originating agency - the Israel Mossad.

E10 transmissions SK!

Lebanon Displays Gadgets Used By Alledged Spies For Israel

Lebanon's Internal Security Forces (ISF) unveiled high-tech intelligence equipment seized from suspects charged with spying for Israel. Among the equipment displayed that I recognized was a Sony shortwave radio and maybe a few others that looked like shortwave radios. Shades of the E10 Israeli Mossad numbers stations.

Israeli Mossad Numbers Station Schedule Online

Our friends over at Black Cat Systems on their website have posted an updated schedule for the Israeli Mossad E10 Numbers Stations (http://www.spynumbers.com/numbersDB/E10time.html). This schedule is part of their Spy Numbers Stations on Shortwave Radio website. This is some real good stuff and many thanks to Chris for the service. Oh check out his Mac software also. You might find something you can use.

What is brewing in Israel?

AlphaE10 on the Enigma 2000 numbers newsgroup posted an interest observation regarding an increase in Enigma E10 numbers traffic yesterday 9/25/2007. These numbers stations are beleived to be transmitted by the Israeli Mossad.

Some specific intercepts noted below:

ULX 1000z 7760 kHz. In the repeat slot at 1630z ULX1 was sent!!
But 1630z/2030z: EZI 9130/6840 kHz

The EZI pair 0330z/1800z 6840 kHz with the heavy 13/11/11/11/13g messages after idling some days with a 49 group message.

NEW: PCD 1930z! Since 14092007 a 19g msg was sent, now a new 14g one is being transmitted.

The YHF pair at 2000z and 0200z 5820 kHz back to a regular message. YHF 1900z 3840 kHz yesterday with 3 messages at 119 groups.

Given the reported recent Israeli military activity over Syria, one has to wonder what the Mossad is up to now with this new round of interesting message traffic on the Enigma E10 stations.
