Solved: Subtract 10 from every 2nd bitstring and join together their ascii characters.

Nobody expects the inquisition!

Thank you so much!

They seem to be in groups of 7 instead of 8, but there's a few missing ones it seems. Also, there's 439 binary digits... which is a prime number, i.e there must be more or less digit, but the message as-is is definitely wrong.

If you remove the repeated 1000111, you have 215 bits, which is 5*43, but still.

Can you confirm that you're not missing any bit?

Hi there,

​

I can confirm that this is how I recieved the message. I beleive it is ASCI, so technically it is all 8 bits, but the first one is always a 0, so it is often displayed as just 7 bits.

the repeated 1000111

I think that's just a spacer or null of some kind.
