alright I did a search for this in the forum and this sounds familiar but I can't find where anyone has mentioned it before (at least on a cursory search). anyway, it looks like this is where the counting on Gyroscope would have come from. check out #6 on the linked page along with the corresponding wiki page it mentions.

"the voice in 'gyroscope' comes from a genuine number station recording, but not from the conet project. the recording was made by sean booth on a shortwave radio and gifted to BOC for use in the track."

Dang, Yellow beat me to it.
But of course BOC was inspired by the conet project.
