Coincidence? A fire breaks out at 02:14 in room B2-114 on September 9 (09/09).

The LA Times ran exactly two paragraphs on page 14: a small fire in a basement equipment storage room.
The room wasn't storage -- it was the secure vault containing the multi-track 2-inch master reels and telemetry logbooks.

Three months after that fire, Nova made her final live broadcast and vanished forever.

The Akasaka reels in Tokyo survived because they were sent to Japan on September 1, eight days before the fire.
