You, too, can listen into coded messages to spies! Digg has a great link to ths article from the Washington Post:

“All you need is a cheap shortwave-radio receiver, the kind available at any drugstore … Turn the dial up to 11545 kHz, and you might hear a few notes of an obscure English folk song, ‘Lincolnshire Poacher,’ followed by a voice repeating strings of numbers. That’s believed to be British Secret Intelligence Service, MI6, broadcasting from Cyprus.”

Useless to anyone but spies or governments, but cool…
