I'm sorry I missed this one. You folks do know that the song "China Girl" isn't about a woman, don't you? Iggy and his pal Bowie had a little problem with the China Girl in that era.

Mac Wiseman? I knew him when I was a kid. He was a cousin. I used to call him Uncle Mac.
 
RA, you ought look up the works of one Elmer Bird. Another one of my kinfolks. The man who preserved the old time "Drop Thumb Banjo" style. Of course he invented it, too. Elmer was hoot. I used to do broadcasts from the bottom across the creek from his birthplace and up on the hill above where he and his wife are buried.

I thought I heard a Satan's Sidebander sneaking around there.

Much better on the 900 foot loop at Old Man Smolinski's Ranch, but still a lot of noise on the band.

What the N2MLP said above, low audio plus a lot of noise at Smolinski's wire ranch in northern MD.

A tad weak but bell clear on the N.W. Coast of Ireland. About an S-5. Where will I go next?

Sounds like some old Black Uhuru being played at the moment. 48 is playing a lot of that old heavy dub style reggae tonight. I an I think it's most irie.

Huh? / Re: Radio Havana Cuba airing adult film audio?

Nah, but it wouldn't surprise me. Who was it, Radio Mali, who wouldn't QSL unless you sent them porn mags in the early 90's? It was the advice the Passport To Worldband Radio gave you in the back of the yearly volume in the station addy section.

I knew some guys who worked for an early Fox "Superstation" before sat rates went down.You would get a call from them about 10-11 pm. on a weeknight saying they were going to be running porn or bootleg vids of in theater movies around 2 am.
There was no one watching that time of night, they got away with it until Fox went on the Bird and they all moved on.

"Elvis the Pelvis" pfft! I guess he never heard of Versailles, KY's, "Enis The Penis"? The local strippers called it "Old Blue".
Did you get treated for those mushroom voices you were hearing, Zeke?
