Op in attempted conversation with shrimpers.
"It sounds like 2 traps, and fuel starvation to me".
It morphed into the "Shrimp Boat Radio" show, WSBR.
Will accept calls from anywhere; you don't necessarily have to be on a shrimp boat.
We can talk about anything. We can talk about shrimpin', or we can talk about shrimpin'.

0416 offficially, it's WSBR Shrimp Boat Radio aka WFAR Freakin' Awesome Radio
Will post audio tomorrow.

The famous early '80's Canadian Pirate TNFM actually gave their HOME phone number for requests. I chatted with them for quite a while and have a cassette recording of the broadcast, where they gave a shout out to me. Of course this was in the pre-Bunneh days when pirates didn't have to worry too much about that sort of thing.

Seems to me a $20 prepaid phone might fit the bill......................... :o The gears are turning...
