Progressive Radio "Even Less" 6929 USB 0438z 4/19/15
« on: April 19, 2015, 0440 UTC »
Just popped up on frequency [ID came from eQSL received Thank You Very Much!!!

2 songs [unknown to me but good]
clip of female number groups
0443z /off

Pretty good signal, covering the static...

s7-9

From eQSL:

What is the meaning of the counting at the end of Even Less?

The counting is taken from a recording of a shortwave numbers station. It is understood that these stations are used by intelligence agencies to transmit coded messages to overseas operatives, although no government agency has ever acknowledged the existence of these stations or what their actual purpose might be.
