Ghost voice

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The ghost voices (also called "enemy objections") were a propaganda technique that was used during the Second World War .

Foreign stations such as Radio Moscow broadcast briefly and with high power on the frequencies of German stations. The employees of this station blinded themselves with slogans such as “With Hitler there is no more peace!” Or “ Germany awake! Hitler verrecke! ”In broadcasts on German radio .

In contrast to enemy transmitters on other frequencies, no jamming transmitters could be used against the technology of the ghost voice , as these made the frequency unusable for the own transmitter.
