The Swedish Rhapsody Numbers Station | Unsettling Cold War Era Radio Transmission...

The Swedish Rhapsody Numbers Station was a Cold War era numbers station that transmitted via Short Wave frequency. Its notable for its eerie and unsettling transmission of a young girls voice accompanied by the musical tones of Swedish Rhapsody #1...

Yes, I heard it back in the 1980s when I did most of my listening. Heard several numbers stations in those days. I just retired two years ago and I'm slowly getting back into shortwave.

Still things on the airwaves to listen to although not as much nowadays but it makes catching something feel more rewarding. Glad your getting back in to this fantastic hobby.

The little girl's voice was actually made by a machine known as the Stasi Sprach-Morse Generator.

I understand your a new channel and you want to gain subscribers but blatantly copying the output of probably the best known UK channel Ringway Manchester isn't the way to do it, best thing you can do if you want to grow is get some original ideas and content then your channel could be bigger than theirs, I'm going to subscribe though, looking forward to seeing some new ideas 👍

[@RadioOddities]

I appreciate your feedback and your subscription - but Lewis (Ringway Manchester) has only just started uploading video on Numbers Stations, I have been uploading these types of videos since early 2020 and in fact the channel was formed in 2019 so its not necessarily a new channel.

It’s cool we actually know where this one came from. Great video.

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it 👍🏻
