I've heard stupid English lessons on around 7100 or so, especially strong in
Europe. Sounds like a beginner's English, i. e., "Jenny is wearing a nice
dress...Joey wants to visit his grandma"etc. The voices are female and are
perfect broadcasting grade, Californian or maybe Midwestern.

Has anyone heard anything like this? Is this int eh same ballpark with
number stations?



The few that I've head are exactly what they sounded like - lessons
in simple English for those to whom it's a second language. Several
countries do it. Somewhat related are the broadcasts that the VOA does
- or used to do - in what they call "slow English", and that's exactly
what it is - you'd recognize it immediately if you heard it.

However, the station you heard could be something other than that,
yeah, (a type of code, etc.)
