A very innacurate piece citing some stations that ceased transmission some years back.
There are plenty of resources available via the net to undertake adequate research of these stations and as for the proof of them being messages for spies, one only need to read the affidavit in the Ana Belen Montes case (states log detail inclusive of frequency) as well as that in the Myers' case.
Both these cases were American in origin and the stations involved were the Cuban language station V02 and the Cuban Morse Station M08 or their variants.
A British Spy case, that of Geoffrey Prime the GCHQ spy, produced a receiver and recordings of a station reading out German numerals.
In the piece in the Epoch Times we are led to believe that if we are lucky we will hear certain tunes being played prior to the message text being sent, or we'll hear a childs' voice. Sadly we need to invent a time machine since those stations stopped transmissions around the time the Berlin wall came down, if not before.
As for the strange intonation of the voices; well that's probably due to the voice synthesisers, but then again.........

Calling Falun Gong a cult is a bit of a stretch, eh? 70 + members (practitioners) is a hell of a cult. Kind of like saying FOX News is a mouth piece of that political cult...the Republican Party.
