shortwave radio results

I began experimenting with shortwave radio communications in summer 2005, having done EVP for a couple months. It started with tuning to static and finding some voices withing the static on playback. Types of voices I have received via radio:

"We'll be in contact before anything else." followed by two tones. June 28th, 2007. Blog post about this clip.
"The government tries to cover up America." June 18th, 2007. Best quality radio clip to date; I could hear the word "government" at the time of recording. This voice appeared 40 seconds into a 9 minute recording, only for this sentence.
"Welcome to ITC group." June 11th, 2007
"You are feeling light headed." June 2007. Blog post about this clip.
Tone 1 Tone 2 June 2007. Blog post about these clips
Musical passage followed by woman saying "You'll be fine". June 2007. Blog post about this clip
Flute June 2007. Blog post about this clip
Sequence including three clips below May 2007.
Singing May 2007.
"Work on the forefront, not on the hysteria" May 2007.
Hard to understand, ends with ³Dissemination of ITC² May 2007.
"Respect to you, we've heard good things." Noise reduced. May 3rd, 2007
"Zulu, I was brought to Earth." May 2nd, 2007
"I trust you don't follow recipies" April 20th, 2007. This is reminiscent in content of "You won't eat no combo never."
"I see a better day for you." Received April 20 2007. Noticing a trend of greater clarity in the radio voices. Becoming more common to get voices that don't require noise reduction.
"You won't eat no combo, never." Same, noise reduced Received March 3 2007. Voice boomed out of my radio but not comprehensible at the time. Preceding transcript is my best guess at what it is saying. Perhaps a Chinese accent. I'm always turning down combos at fast food places, like, I'll order a burrito and nachos, and they say "Do you want the combo?", and I say no, I do not want a drink with that, because I don't need a drink, I don't drink pop, and I'll just have some water at work and an apple instead of buying a juice. I do this very consistently and the last time was a few days ago. So the message is accurate, and is probably intended to have another layer of meaning. The Chinese accent seems to me like a joke on combo's being originally a Chinese food thing (I remember a joke version of "Mambo #5" done by a Chinese guy as "Combo #5").
"That's John." Received March 3 2007. Audible during recording but not comprehensible. Came 10 seconds after "You won't eat no combo" clip. Sounds like a female singing with a sustained note on the "John". I don't think it's a response to the previous clip but it could be. It could just be them saying that they detected that my radio is on and I'm recording.
"It's Alma. First, know what people want." Same, noise reduced Did not hear it at time of recording, I might have dismissed it as a regular radio voice. I think it is a non-earthly voice becase:
  • It is an isolated, complete sentence - if it were a bit of a radio broadcast this would be unlikely
  • It is a classic high pitched, slightly sped-up voice
  • It contains advice requiring interpretation - the meaning is not plainly obvious
  • The un-noise-reduced version seems to say a stacatto "JT" (as I'm sometimes called) before the message
"I will change your universe" Noise reduced.
"Transcode healer" Noise reduced.
"Still into music, are you forming a band?" Same, noise reduced This voice was audible directly from the radio. Was not tuned to a station. Words could not be made out until playback. I have always been involved in music and have formed a few bands. Note helicopter like sound in background.
"Canada's with us" I live in Canada. Noise reduced.
"Don't worry, it's real" A voice carried within bursts of static. I had been feeling discouraged, that I wasn't making any progress at the time. Not noise reduced; just as it was heard from the radio.
Two way dialogue.
Me: "Can you try to say radio?"
(pause)
Voice: "Radio"
This was one of the first times I heard the robotic voice. It appeared to respond to my questions. Not noise reduced; as is.
