I’ve come up with a different approach to decode the Mt. Diablo Z32 cryptogram that doesn’t involve substitutions. Please have a look and let me know what your thoughts are:

Your "little list" solution is particularly interesting.

Nice research and write-up.

Given that for the "little list" he says "staring with the woman and her baby", could CJ be "Cathleen Johns" (sic)?

Could KIF actually be KTF? Rick Marshall worked for the KTIM FM radio station.

Nothing new, just a super quick recap for whomever didn’t click the link for the full explanation.

I am proposing that Z32 is actually 2 codes interlaced. One is made of Greek letters, the other isn’t. You end up with the following 2 cryptograms:

I think the second one is the Little List. See my original post for the details.

I will make a new post soon that refers to this. In relation to Z340.

Great work! I saw your site a few months ago. I like the direction of your analysis. The Mt Diablo code solution Is very compelling and well reasoned. Far and away the best and most complete proposal I’ve seen offered.

I also like the proposed overlap cipher idea you wrote up for the “My name is” cipher. I have to squint to make some of the suggested overlaps work. In an ideal world, someone would throw the original letter under a scanning electron microscope and figure out which stokes are on top of which. That data is still there on the atomic level and it could prove he wrote forward, then backwards, and also show more precisely which chapters he used.

Excited to hear your thoughts on z340. Keep up the good work.

Thanks for the kind words! Finally posted my thoughts about z340 so please let me know what your impressions are. Thanks again.

I slightly modified the Greek numerals conversion to this idea:

This way, the interpretation shows the letter omega as representing the angle formed between 10AM and 370 (presumably 3.7 radians).

It just so happens that 3.7rad has quite a relevant value in degrees for a reference point such as Mt Diablo:

This gives me more confidence that the Greek letters and numerals approach is probable.

P.S.: These coordinates now point to San Pablo.

For what it’s worth, Kenneth Lester German had a mysterious property in San Pablo. https://www.dailyrepublic.com/all-dr-ne … ac-killer/

I am revisiting the idea that the plaintext of the Diablo code is composed of the Greek letters in the Z32 cipher. This time, I am choosing only the letters that have a direct Greek correspondence, not all Greek-like letters. We end up with the following string of characters:

And once reformatted:

Let’s assume that the coordinates are located before and after the X (shown in red below):

– The red symbols are interpreted as Greek numerals and are converted to our usual numerals.
– We end up with 370 and 309. Let’s say, per the zodiac’s instructions, that we interpret this as 3.70 radians and 3.09 inches along the radian (i.e. the arc length).
– As seen above, if we convert the angle in radians to degrees and consider the radius in centimeters obtained from the arc length in inches, we get: 666/pi degrees by 6.66/pi cm!!

Indeed:

3.70 rad = 666/pi deg

and

3.09" arc => 6.66/pi cm radius

[…continued from previous post]

The following diagram illustrates how the number of the beast (666) appears twice in the Mt Diablo cipher coordinates:

And once we apply these coordinates to the map:

The coordinates point to… Diablo Road. So, starting from Mount Diablo, we apply the 666/pi deg X 6.66/pi cm coordinates and end up on Diablo road. Quite an interesting trick :twisted: .

In the plaintext, the letters "HEP" follow the coordinates. It so happens that in Latin, HEP stands for "Hic Est Positus" or "Here it was laid/placed". A very appropriate epigraph for the coordinates pointing to where a bomb was supposedly buried. Speaking of burying, the initial "lOAM" letters in the plaintext seem to refer to the soil type (loam) where the bomb was buried.
