The first sound is a (german) numbers station where a woman (i can't help my self and interpret the voice as a child's voice) speaks some testing numbers (i guess) it's 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0 - the interleave signal is: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swedish_Rhapsody_No._1


Sorry for asking, but what is odd about this sound? I also don't know what a interleave is.

But, anyway, this sounded to me as something we could find in a station from Lost.


These real life mysteries were probably part of the inspiration for Lost.

Everyone loves numbers stations. Here's a video of one of the actual devices used to generate those signals: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xkc_Ig87TnM


Besides being a number station, I'm not sure there's anything particularly strange about that recording.
