On it, the person on the other end of the transmission echoes Boone (but in a different, less excited and more monotone voice) "Hello, we're the survivors of Oceanic Flight 815."
Relistening to the broadcast, both could make sense and its possible the show purposely jumbled the words in order to generate a little mystery about it.

I was watching the preview for the new episode and, you're right, it clearly says "We're the survivors of flight 815." During the episode and even after watching it several times, I couldn't make it out, but on the preview it is as clear as the day is long.
Now here's where it gets interesting, for me at least.
The guy on the radio sounded like Boone. So if
ourBoone was talking to
another Boone, then there would be at least two different Boones. It's not that far a stretch to presume that there are other Jacks, Lockes, Kates, Sawyers, etc.... Maybe even a whole lot of them. So what are they? Where the hell are they? Different dimensions? That's certainly interesting considering Sawyer's reading material as of late.
There's lots of places to take this. I'll posit just a few. What if it doesn't matter that Boone died? What if another Boone just shows up? What if, like
dingo suggested, the Locke shot isn't
our Locke? Not some instrument of evil, but just another Locke from somewhere else. For the Stephen King fans out there, I'm talking "walk-ins."
