I used to spend tons of time when I was a kid playing around with my dad's shortwave radio.
I never heard a number's station, but I did once come across a station playing a monophonic synth version of Waltzing Matilda over and over again. The atmosphere must have been super reflective that night if I was picking up Australia from the Midwestern U.S., so I don't think whatever it was came from Australia. But I've never been able to explain it.
For what it's worth, I picked up Radio Australia on shortwave from Denver on a recently-restored tube radio (albeit a higher-end one). It was surprisingly clear too!
