On track 9's instrumental cut, the 14.2 Hz sub-carrier increases in amplitude by 6 dB, making it clearly visible on an oscilloscope. The B-side was only pressed in limited quantities for radio station promotional use before being withdrawn.

Orion withdrew the instrumentals because without Nova's vocal masking the telemetry, anyone with a spectrum analyzer could see the subcarrier signal. -- Dong-hyun Lindqvist Opinions expressed are solely my own and not those of Pacific Bell Internet Services. ------------------------------------------------------------
