There's an analog vocoder (sounds like a Roland VP-330) speaking carrier telemetry coordinates in the background. 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. Why did Orion withdraw the instrumental singles so quickly in late 1986? -- Mathieu García US Robotics Courier V.34 @ 14,400 bps "Extraordinary claims require extraordinary spectra."

Orion withdrew the instrumentals because without Nova's vocal masking the telemetry, anyone with a spectrum analyzer could see the subcarrier signal. -- Fiona Larsson | flarsson@u-tokyo.ac.jp PGP Key fingerprint: C746 1172 E7F7 2480 "Keep the channels open."
