Hidden Morse Code Discovered in Tubular Bells!
2025-01-23
During the 1973 recording of Mike Oldfield's Tubular Bells at The Manor Studio, a hidden Morse code signal from the Rugby Radio Station, 37 miles away, was inadvertently captured. The station, used for communication within the British Empire, transmitted at a frequency audible to humans. Analysis confirmed the signal, decoding to 'VVV GBR', the callsign of the Rugby station. This discovery unexpectedly connects Tubular Bells, Alan Turing (codebreaker), and a Scottish radio listening station, creating a fascinating historical mystery.
