Run that JS and your computer will speak to you!
Question/answers from 2016, so might be misleading...
however even when it is working, it's not really like a numbers station. For a start, it needs varying static and clicks. Secondly, numbers stations don't generally say "seven hundred and thirty four", they generally say "seven. three. four." the random words repeated sometimes are a nice touch, though. And i like the idea of grabbing words from an internal list in the way the author did it. I wouldn't have thought of that, probably.
some numbers stations that i personally archived:

https://soundcloud.com/djoutcold/uvb-76-aug-23-2010-9-32ampst
https://nextcloud.projectftm.com/index.php/s/unid-pizza-numbers [0]
https://soundcloud.com/djoutcold/sdrsharp-20150825-020508z-4368khz-af
additionally, i know the 19008500-mhz is mislabeled, it should be 19.008500-mhz or instead of "mhz" just "hz"

and i got something stuck in my craw about noise so here's one with more accurate noise:
<!DOCTYPE html><html><body><button onclick="f()">Start</button><script>
function f(){with(window){
a=new AudioContext;
g=a.createGain();g.gain.value=.05;
h=a.createScriptProcessor(256,1,1);p=0;
h.onaudioprocess=e=>{
b=e.outputBuffer.getChannelData(0);
for(i=0;i<b.length;i++)b[i]=p+=(Math.random()*2-1)/10;
};
h.connect(g).connect(a.destination);
const l=n=>((n.match(/[A-Z]/g)||[]).length==1&&(n[0].match(/[A-Z]/g)||[]).length==1);
setInterval(()=>{
s=Object.getOwnPropertyNames(globalThis).filter(l).sort(()=>.5-Math.random())[0];
if(Math.random()>.3){
n=String(Math.ceil(Math.random()*1e4).toString().padStart(4,'0'));
s=n[0]+'. '+n[1]+'. point. '+n[2]+'. '+n[3]+'.';
}
m=new SpeechSynthesisUtterance;m.text=s;
v=speechSynthesis.getVoices();m.lang=v[(Math.random()*v.length)|0].lang;
m.rate=Math.random();m.pitch=Math.random()*2;speechSynthesis.speak(m);
},866);
}}</script></body></html>
i don't know javascript so apologies if i messed anything up (because it will eventually pop and click which is extremely accurate to numbers station reception but also crashes the page - audio stops.)
doesn't mean 94 . 73 (or 94,73)? i considered using "dot". I'd have to listen to a german numbers station that uses a splitter like "point" or "dot"
what i'm asking is if you have an ip address like 4.2.2.2 how would you read that over the phone, in german?
also i made a lot of edits to fix issues during the edit window to the two versions i posted
Vier punkt zwei punkt zwei punkt zwei.
But the TTS isn't me, it sees 4. 2. 2. 2. (with spaces in between) and reads Vierte, Zweite, Zweite, Zweite (fourth, second, second, second).
Without spaces, it reads it like the way Germans read an IP address (see first line of reply).
In German the "." after the number is like the "nd" or "th" in "2nd" or "4th".
and i used copilot because i am not a programmer, i just wanted to see if it was, in fact, possible to add noise and fix the way the numbers were read in 1kb. and i kept your code essentially the same, only adding stuff to split the numbers up closer to how they sound on RF.
so, sorry!
