It wasn't Technical Man as I emailed him and he said he wasn't on the air. I heard the guy say "hello to the people listening in Alabama" about two or three times.  So I guess I was mishearing that, I heard Technical Man when he was talking in Dutch. It wasn't the best signal, still daylight when I was listening, signal was quite reasonable one minute, almost gone the next.

It was Marjanne just had confirmation email, I guess Marjanne sounded like Technical Man to me when I heard him talking. I think someone in Alabama had been listening and sent a reception report which is why he mentioned Alabama.


edit : Marjanne broadcasts on Tuesdays, and later in the evening. Wrong confirmation
