Radio - Dare-28

Recording of a number station, allegedly from USAF which transmits regularly at 8992kHz, USB.
Male voice, American English with pronounced echo.
Date and approx time of the transmission (GMT) are given on the filename.

The French speaking radio amateurs are interrupted again by the number station transmission in American English.
In the second half of the transmission there is also some kind of electronic beep-beep-beep interfeerence.
This recording is interesting as the speaker of the number station makes a correction to the message at the end. - indicating this is a live transmission rather than a recording.

This recording was made from the Twente university online radio tuner: http://websdr.ewi.utwente.nl:8901/

Not an amateur frequency, looks like the French speakers are probably co-users, French Air Force. http://ik4hdq.net/nato_freq.htm I think the echoes are probably caused by use of multiple simultaneous transmitters as there are 2 distinct echoes, 1 short and one long, not your typical round-the-world shortwave broadcast type echo IMHO, but I could be wrong.
