About This Item

Pocket_decoder_ani


How to use me:

  1. When you look at encoded message hopefully they will have already found the symbol they need and they will line up the symbol on the inner wheel with the AB on the outer wheel. Now you will need to find the letters on the outer wheel and write down the matching letter on the inner wheel.

 
  1. A much more secure method of sending a secret message is to use a Vigenere Cipher with a keyword. With this type of cipher you change the alignment of the code wheels after each letter in your message. For this example we will send the message "MEET AT THE LIBRARY AT SEVEN". We will use "SECRET" for the keyword. The first step is to write the keyword above the plain text lining up the letters one for one. Find the first letter of the key text (which is S) on the inner wheel and line it up with with the letter A on the outer wheel.

 

 
  1. Now find the first letter of the plaintext (M) on the inner wheel and take the matching letter (V) for the first letter of the cipher text. Align the next letter of the key text (E) on the inner wheel with the letter A on the outer wheel. Find the second letter of the plaintext (E) on the inner wheel and use the matching letter on the outer wheel (A) for the second letter in your cipher text. Follow this same procedure to finish enciphering your message.

Před nastávajícím megaeventem prohrabuji nostalgicky staré fotky z jiných mega - a našel jsem tento putovní předmět.
Dík za staré setkání.
