Every single tape box is stamped 'VOICE PRINT: GEN-3' in purple ink. That matches the Ashford memo from 1989. At the very end of reel JP-85-X, after 4 minutes of studio leader tape, there's a faint whisper naming June 2025. Who was the engineer at the Akasaka branch? The studio log only lists the initials 'M.H.'. -- Olga Souza -- UC Berkeley Department of EECS "The carrier frequency does not drift by accident."
