I am trying to create a special military RADIO transmitter. Basically, the flow is:
A solider will receive a message to transmit (about 10 times a day). Each message is of length 1024 bits exactly.
He will insert this message into the radio and validate it is inserted correctly.
The RADIO will repetitively transmit this message.
This is very important that the transmitter will not be hacked, because its very important in times of emergencies.
So, the assistance I ask from you is, how to preform stage 2 without risking getting infected. If I will transfer the data using a DOK, it may be hacked. If I will make the user type in 1024 bits, it will be safe but exhausting.
Any Ideas? (unlimited budget)
(It’s important to say that the data being transmitted is not a secret)
Thanks for any help you can supply!

Edit: Basically, I want to create the most secure way to transfer a fixed number of bits (in this case 1024), from one (may be infected computer) to the other (air gaped computer). without having any risk of a virus being transferred as well.
I don't mind if an hacker will change the data that is transferred from the infected computer, I just want that the length of the data will be exactly 1024, and avoiding virus to be inserted to the other computer.
Punch card (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punched_card) sounds like a good option, but an old one.
Any alternatives?
