WRKO Shortwave eQSL - 01 JAN
« on: January 01, 2024, 2219 UTC »
Thanks for the rebroadcast of a pirate's tale to start the new year off and historic eQSL.  ;D

Funny aside about Allan Weiner and when this was originally broadcast in 1998 - I was vacationing in Maine in August 1998 and brought a portable with me.  I tuned into Radio Netherlands one night to hear a RN host interview Allan Weiner about a station he was starting in a month.  Had not heard about it previously.  So, there I am in Maine listening to RN on shortwave about a new station to go on the air in Maine shortly.  ;D

Adding my thanks to Dale and the crew for the same nostalgic regional programing and retro eQSL!
