G13 – Five Dashes German Numbers Station
Loading
/

G13 was a cooperative numbers station maintained by the CIA and the West German BND during the Cold War for destabilization operations.  It used a German military radio variant for 2 and 9, read as “zwo” and “nuenen”.  The 9 variant is ‘nuenen’ (pretty much sounds like ‘niner’).  In February of 1991, the voice drastically changed.  It followed mostly the same format, but emphasized some numbers such as 5 more heavily.  The emission mode is unknown, but was probably USB.
