VA: The Conet Project: Recordings of Short-Wave Numbers Stations 4CD (IRD
TCP1). "Numbers stations are found all over the shortwave spectrum. They
emit unusual transmissions of synthesized voices reading sets of phonetic
letters and or numbers. The origin of these stations is in dispute. Their
purpose is unclear. There are many dozens of different signal types on the
air, each run by different organizations. Some of these organizations
should have been closed down after the end of the cold war, yet they
continue to transmit like clockwork. No one has ever compiled a set of
numbers stations recordings for sale to the public. Until now. The Conet
Project: a quadruple CD of 150 recordings covering 25 years of numbers
station activity, with detailed logs, essays, and a definitive lookup table
of all known numbers stations, including morse numbers stations. An
invaluable and fascinating resource for all listeners, this is the
definitive reference work on the mysterious field of numbers stations,
containing very rare recordings from as early as 1971 and up to date
examples of currently operating stations. The quadruple CD comes with an 80
page perfect bound booklet in two jewel cases."
