7005 makes a lot of chords around here when the DX lurkers all hear a new
one and pounce at once, but usually they are more microtonal than
well-tempered.  Maybe you caught them on an especially even-tempered day.

Some composer a long time ago did something with Morse telegraphy tuned to
well-tempered pitches, but I can't remember any details.  Kraftwerk did some
stuff like this on Radioactivity, but not in multiple lines.

Mostly I've done things with the rhythms.  KFS is a callsign now licensed to
Globe Wireless, and I don't know if it's ever heard on the bands any more,
but you can dance to it.  Dahdidah dididahdit dididit, dahdidah dididahdit
dididit .  Get up from your key and boogie.
