Something completely out of the ordinary for this site but mentioning here just because i keep looking at all the theories with the kind of curiosity reserved for rubber necking and figured i'd share ;-)
The Russian "Numbers Station" UVB-76, which is a radio station broadcasting on 4625kHz with enough power to be picked up almost globally, normally produces a buzzing noise ~25 times per minute. The purpose of this, and other number stations has never formally been admitted by any national government or agency. Although i think there was a senior british military bod once said something like "they are what you suppose they are" when he was asked if they were used for communicating with spies.
Since the 23rd of August UVB-76 has broadcast a new voice message. Only the 4th occurrence since this numbers station was found in 1982 i think it is.
EDIT: forgot to put in the transcript of the voice message: UVB-76, UVB-76 - 93 882 naimina 74 14 35 74 - 9 3 8 8 2 nikolai, anna, ivan, michail, ivan, nikolai, anna, 7, 4, 1, 4, 3, 5, 7, 4 - (repeated twice)
Background on this station, including picture of it and listing of events since the 20th August ->

Recording of the new transmission ->

If the encoded message refers to coordinates, it's either in the barents sea, or in the pakistan mountains (depending on which way round the "coordinates" are read).
It's quite a short message, hard to imagine anything more than general information could be encoded in the message. Although it has been noted that maybe the lack of a particular message, known only to official consumers of this station, could be significant too.
Who knows :-) Not normally one for conspiracy theories but this is more tangible and easier to speculate on.
