The Buzzer Primer
Priyom.org, 2012. Priyom.org, 25 March 2012.
An 18-page overview built around recordings: first reports between 1976 and 1982; a 1982 recording by Ary Boender; a higher-pitched marker in 1989 and the present sound from about 1990; the first logged voice message on 24 December 1997 (call sign UZB-76); an accidentally open microphone on 3 November 2001; the hourly two-tone signal dropped in June 2010; Swan Lake played during transmitter tests on 2 September 2010; a half-hour phone conversation transmitted on 11 November 2010. Argues that UVB-76 is a mishearing of UZB-76 and that the station is not a numbers station.
