The KPH coastal station near San Francisco sent a special message this weekend. It was encrypted with an Enigma machine and sent for everyone to try and decode. If you missed it, and want to try I posted a video of it: https://youtu.be/IgbggcpxrC0

Have fun!

Super cool. I saw the notification late and missed seeing if I could hear it. I wish there was a way to be notified for next time

MRHS (the group running KPH) has a newsletter you can sign up for. Check out https://www.radiomarine.org/

Awesome thanks. They make it seem like a lot of different organizations are involved but I just signed up for their newsletter. Now I just have to RX from CA…

I thought you were referring to the new, appropriated, use of "crypto" and expected to see something about someone shilling trash over the airwaves.

Imagine my surprise when I learned you actually meant "crypto" in its original meaning!

Haha, that or there's a new "enigma" coin
