Hi Thomas,<\/p>\n

I just finished watching “Spycraft” on Netfilx<\/a>. It’s 8X30min parts documentary.<\/p>\n

The last part is “Recruiting the best spy<\/em>“.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I first spotted this lovely 880 Eddystone receiver but coming into the ~20 min was the story of the ICF-2010 and how an American spy for Cuba used it to receive the “numbered” code massages.<\/p>\n

Later on there is nice illustration how the code was used.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

There are few other radios pop here and there on this documentary as you can expect from the Spy Craft .<\/p>\n

Thank you so much, Adi!\u00a0 Some years ago, I actually read the book upon which I believe this series was based. Many thanks for the tip!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
