E17z – The English Lady “674” Numbers Station

E17z is a Ukrainian numbers station that has been active since the 1990’s.  The station has always had the same call-up number 674 ( though there are two exceptions to this seen below).  E17z has a new message every two weeks with 5 groups or more. Old messages are also repeated until a new one comes in. Sends null messages every last few days of the month.  If listened to carefully, it is possible to hear noise from the machine generating the voice.

Recording Sample

The exception’s to E17z having the call-up 674 were the instance’s where it sent 30 group messages and had the call-up 274 instead.  Recently E17z also sent a message with a different ID 217 sending a 5 group message.
