This is all fine and proper but lets get to the meat of the issue.....The primary ingredient in Spam is chopped pork shoulder meat mixed with ham. About 90% of Spam is pork from a pig's shoulders. The remaining 10% (or so) comes from the pig's buttock and thigh, better known as ham.

« on: May 01, 2018, 2133 UTC »

2130 UTC Carrier noted already here with just an occasional hint of audio at threshold
2140 UTC There is also a weak carrier on 7727 khz, so I had to switch to LSB for Zeppelin. Still a bit early but I can hear hints of music real low in the noise

Hi Zeppelin Radio! Sunset here on the East Coast is 2349 UTC, so grayline reception is still a ways off....I'll be checking in until I can ID some songs! 

Hi Ether Hacker! He's made it into the east coast here a few times already! At least twice with a fairly good signal too!

2221 UTC "Ode to Billie Joe"Bobbie Gentry 
2235 UTC "The Weight"-The Band
(Reception conditions not very good today.....signal is hanging right at the noise floor)
2245 UTC "Crimson and Clover"-Tommy James & Shondells
2250 UTC "Jennifer Eccles"-Hollies
2256 UTC "Something's Happening"-Hermans Hermits
2307 UTC Maybe OM talking now....tough copy here
(Signal is buried in the noise now....not much chance of hearing more  )

Thanks for the broadcast today Zeppelin Radio!

I remember there was a T-shirt floating around the novelty shops back in the 1970's that said "Makin' Bacon", with a suggestive pic emblazoned across the back 

The section of East Springfield I live in was a Pig Farm back in the early decades of the 1900's. I was chastised by a neighbor once who grew up on a farm, who told me it was more properly referred to as a "Gentleman's Farm"

What part of the Pig does "SPAM" come from?
