I was listening to a program on NPR. They were interviewing a guy about the Conet Project. It sparked my interest and I began googling. Lots and lots of hits. In a nutshell, some guy in London back in early 90s became obsessed listening to these mysterious transmissions on short wave radio. He later began recording them and they were made public as the Conet Project recordings. I downloaded a few and listened. Very strange stuff. Freaky, is a good description
Have you guys heard of this? Is it hoax, just more conspiracy theory nonsense, something else entirely, or maybe on the level?
Here is a short cut and paste from one of the many sites that explains it better and more succinctly than I could.
The Conet Project is an encyclopedic document of the anomalous and uncanny broadcasts from numbers stations. A number station anonymously transmits synthesized voices reading sets of phonetic letters and / or numbers. While there is no organization that has yet claimed responsibility for these transmissions, it is assumed that the CIA, MI6 (British Secret Intelligence Service), MOSSAD (Israeli Intelligence Service), and the renamed KGB are among those who operate the numbers stations
Here is one example.
