G'day,
I don't think you would have either, late 1970's and we were on AM.
It was a local thing that spread with the rapidness of a snail going backwards.
I reckon I might be pushin it though to find someone around here that would even remember it.

i been on radio since 1975 and till now never heard of it.

G'day folks,

A long time ago, with some mates at the time, while having fun, something got made called the 13 codes.

An Aussie twist on the 10 codes if you like.

I have put down what I can remember about it, and I've started to search for the original sheet.

Well, the non-aussies found it and gave it a twist into their own cultures, did things like remove John Laws from them, the buggers.

Have a read of what happened, read the original and then the links to the foreigners versions are there for a laugh as well.

On that page is a pic of my still going 27 MHz, it is my 3rd SSB.
My first was a Pace 1000M, dead and gone long time,
2nd SSB is Pearce-Simpson, I also still have it somewhere.
3rd is the Thorn 1503, I got this as payment for fixing some UHF's, very happy to take it.
