Intelligence rec'd by Nagumo prior to Pearl Harbor attack

What was the info obtained by Adm Chuichi Nagumo, during the last 12 hours or so, before the PH attack?

Two sources, I have found say about the same thing (I now feel I need two sources, due to my lack of credibility, according to a few, but very vocal members on this forum).

Japanese spy, Vice Consul Morimura (his real name was Takeo Yoshikawa), sent this from Pearl Harbor to Toyko, the night of Dec. 6, 1941.

VESSELS MOORED IN HARBOR: NINE BATTLESHIPS; THREE CLASS-B CRUISERS; THREE SEAPLANE TENDERS; SEVENTEEN DESTROYERS. ENTERING HARBOR ARE FOUR CLASS-B CRUISERS; THREE DESTROYERS. ALL AIRCRAFT CARRIERS AND HEAVY CRUISERS HAVE DEPARTED HARBOR. No INDICATION OF ANY CHANGES IN U.S. FLEET.

2nd source::// ibiblio.org/pha/timeline/411206cx2.html, says the same thing, but adds, it appears that no air reconnaissance is being conducted by the fleet air arm (which would be useful info).

Time says, this was the "last word required by Nagumo before mounting the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor", but my question was it the last
intelligence, Nagumo was able to get. On another forum, claims are made that subs were giving him info and that Nagumo sent out scout planes,
before launching the first wave of planes, which also gave him info.

If accurate, how did they communicate, if strick radio silence was being
adhered to?

 

As OP so patiently tried to point out, turning on your radio in your house and listening to the tunes or the news doesn't give away where your house is does it? Receiving incoming radio signals is completely in accord with "radio silence". Replying to same would be a breach of said policy, Nagumo didn't reply. He took in the latest data and continued on his mission.

 

I was just wondering if radio signals were sent from scout planes, or Jap subs, back to Nagumo and the Jap strike force. Wouldn't that have been
also picked up by a US Army/Navy listening post at PH.

No conspiracy or racist attitude involved.

 

But how was the "latest data" sent to Nagumo? Did Naguno get any info
from scout planes and subs in the PH area...simple question.

Naguma wouldn't have been the only one able to pick-up a radio signal.
So, I would think, scouting planes or subs, would be reluctant to send a
radio message.

Did the scout planes, just not report, which meant something, or did they
return with a scouting report?

 

Have we stooped down to a level where we answer questions with sarcasm. I do not see any conspiracy theorist question here. I see him asking what sources of information were used to (if any) keep Nagumo informed. There may be something I am missing but as far as this thread is concerned, it is a valid posting. Hopefully someone will chime in with some quality answers

 

The latest report was sent by the "on sight" spy in the Japanese embassy, he sent the last "data" on the ships in the harbor in the "Purple" diplomatic code. We had broken and did intercept this message, unfortunately it wasn't decyrpted until Dec. 8th the following day after the attack.

 

You see all this in this thread?

 

I'm addressing the thread in question. There are other rogues who have 'patterns' but are all of their postings automatically thrown out? My question stands, is the thread in question invalid?

 

You have not answered my question. Is the question asking about radio intel available invalid?

 

I do not see any sources referenced in this thread

 

That was neither mentioned nor referenced in this thread.
