North Korea Stops Sending Coded Messages Through Radio Station
North Korea must have found a more effective way to send orders to their spies in South Korea:
North Korea is pressing ahead with measures to disband its inter-Korean organizations, apparently stopping a radio station previously used to send encrypted messages to its spies in South Korea.
As of Saturday, the North appears to have stopped broadcasting the state-run Pyongyang Radio and cut off access to its website.
The latest move comes after North Korean leader Kim Jong-un ordered “readjusting and reforming” its organizations in charge of inter-Korean affairs during a key Workers’ Party meeting last month amid growing cross-border tensions.
Pyongyang Radio is known for broadcasting a series of mysterious numbers, presumed to be coded messages, giving directions to its agents operating in South Korea.

Many countries use so-called number stations to transmit data. Some of it is filler.
I imagine the Norkistanis are already prepared for what they plan to do.
