KRYPTOS : PART IV
The last 97 (98?) letters of Kryptos have yet to be cracked.
Does part 3 contain a clue to part 4, or instructions on solving it?
Were the last 97 letters meant to be broken or are they a key
to REdecrypting the first 3 sections?
What encryption method was used? We are told Kryptos is meant
to be solved in a straightforward manner with pencil and paper, as if
its a simple cryptogram from your Sunday paper.
Could several letters be nulls? What is the "L" in the tableau side of the
Kryptos for? Is there an underlying message beneath the already
decoded text?

TEST ONE:
strip off from the upper right down seven letters at a time, as in part 3.

I only highlighted the more common letters with an
assumption that there may be alot of nulls.

IN ORDER FOR THE KR AND THE YP OF THE LAST SECTION TO LINE UP ON AN UNDERLYING TABLE, THE
TABLE WOULD HAVE TO START OVER OR WRAP AROUND. IM NOT INCLUDING THE NORMAL ALPHABETS
HERE, I THINK THEYRE JUST FOR SHOW MAYBE. ROW 2 SHOWS THE LETTERS THAT MATCH ON BOTH
SIDES AND ROW 3 SHOWS LETTERS THAT WERE OFF BY ONE, SUGGESTING A SHIFT OF SOME SORT.
