Happy Hanukkah Radio 6875.5 KHZ AM 1245 UTC DEC 20, 2014
« on: December 20, 2014, 1250 UTC »
Nice to hear this on a Saturday morning with fair signal well above the noise level and in the clear at 1245 UTC with "The 2,000 Year Old Man" :)
1258 UTC Man announcer ..."We will be signing off now, email address, child saying Happy Hanukkah, then numerous repeats of the IS, ending with man announcer..."Happy Hanukkah Interval Signal on zero", then "5, 4, 3, 2, then more IS
1301 UTC Child saying Happy Hanukkah, then IS
1303 UTC Man announcer with "Happy Hanukkah Interval Signal on zero", then more IS
Opening song "Miracle of Miracles" Fiddler On the Roof
1311 UTC "Antiochus"
Hmmm...is the baseball clip the famous back to the infield catch of Willy Mays of Vic Wertz's 400+ foot blast in the 1954 World Series?
Rather than post more details, I listen.... :)
Happy Hanukkah to you Mr. Goldberg from a pirate Gentile!

1331 UTC Man announcer ..."Happy Hanukkah Interval Signal on zero...5, 4, 3, then OFF!

S9+10 with HHR ID's by altered voice, and Happy Hanukkah by little girl. Then interval signal. Dead air for a bit at 1259 and then into more interval signal.
