I thought i saw a way to convert to a usable audio file long ago but Googling gives no answers. I know the audio will sound like static but I would like to know if it is possible without trying to make something myself.

You meant converting a gaussian signal to an analog output?

Some were under the impression that I could be listening to a voice but perhaps not true either.

Old forum posting talking about this & a link to how to listen to the "data".

I didn't check if the 'software' link was still good.
