The Tyrolean Music Station was a believed French shortwave numbers station that transmitted from Chartres in the Centre-Val de Loire region, France,[1] from the early 1970s until late 1975. The station played several folk music songs by German yodeller Franzl Lang, prior to broadcasting one or several coded messages, and a music-box rendition of "The Internationale". The station was of unknown origin during the time it was broadcasting, until a French magazine, Interférences, claimed in their Autumn 1975 issue that the station was operated by the French intelligence service, SDECE.[1] Shortly after this magazine was published, the station ceased broadcasting.
