Nice signal. Station ID at 0100. Rapid fading but clear audio. Great songs!

Isn't he a sweetheart?  He played a request for me a few weeks ago and sent a shoutout with it, then e-mailed me after, telling me to let him know if I ever wanted to hear any other Dutch songs.  Yes, the bird who asked for a contemporary Dutch track was me.  What a lovely person. 

Speaking of lovely people, thanks for posting the recording of the show, Skeezix!

I'll usually email him every Saturday night with a signal report, and to thank him for continuing to beam their signal to North America when pretty much the rest of the world doesn't even bother anymore :^(  Gotta let them know there's an audience here!! I'll put in a song request 1-2 times a month... Don't wanna be a hog! :^) He may not always be in the office, but Eric will always answer an email.
