The Dangerous Transmission

by Franklin W. Dixon

Book 184 of the The Hardy Boys Mystery Stories series

Frank and Joe Hardy investigate a dangerous transmission whose signal or message appears connected to criminal activity. Electronic communication lets the sender operate at a distance, forcing the brothers to determine both what the transmission means and where it originates. Following the signal brings them closer to people who do not want their communications intercepted. Franklin W. Dixon’s Hardy Boys mystery combines communications technology, coded information, and physical danger in a case where receiving the clue is easier than tracing its source.
