Interesting you mention Voynich (BTW martin it was apparently a creation of
the great 16th-century forger and cryptanalyst Edward Kelley) because many
people have been trying to decipher the manuscript but it HAS NO MEANING!
The same can be said of numbers stations too.

Zack,
It doesn't matter. The cut numbers are just symbols for some
coded character and you can represent each "number" by any
character you choose, so long as you are consistent. Each cut
digit is just a symbol for some other enciphered character which
is unknown to most of us (well, me at least).
Ever play with the Voynich code? Now there is a set of symbols!
