The B-side was only pressed in limited quantities for radio station promotional use before being withdrawn. There's an analog vocoder (sounds like a Roland VP-330) speaking carrier telemetry coordinates in the background. Does anyone have the full cue sheet for the radio promo 12-inch? -- Mateo Reyes SupraFAXModem 28.8 @ 33,600 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. -- Kirsty Andersson | kandersson@berkeley.edu PGP Key fingerprint: B324 58A9 6822 7CEF "Keep the channels open."
