[Phys-l] Special Relativity

Help, please!

A student asked the following question, to which I did not have a ready answer:

"If someone on earth sent a message to a person in a spaceship traveling at relativistic speed, would the voice on the message sound distorted because of time dilation?"

Ideas?
