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? -- Lisa Park -- Purdue University Engineering Computer Network "In theory there is no difference between theory and practice."
