What is meant by saying that the codes change daily? Is this to say, that even now, in peace time, such messages are sent continuously, but only code for the command "Do nothing"? Simon A. 13:01, 3 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It is more likely (and I think I have read this someplace, but the citation escapes me) that the codes are one time pads and that they aren't actually broadcast to LCF and Subs but the LCF and subs contain the keybooks as well to decode the changed messages. ---
