The Happy Station Show 11580 AM 2200 UTC 26 April 2017

Excellent reception

This is an enjoyable, quirky program that started decades ago on RN.  It is now produced via PCJ media.  It is like a 1960's TV variety show over the airwaves.

2200z Theme song into discussion on water & motorcycles
2203z "Don't Rain on my Parade"
2206z Instrumental of "It Never Rains in California"
2210z Radio Netherlands discussion and old tape thereof.
Tecsun H501x (broadcast received on this unless noted), Zenith T/O G500, Zenith T/O Royal 7000, Emerson AR-176, Zenith 8S154, T/O 7G605 (Bomber), Tecsun PL-600, Tecsun PL-880, Zenith 5S320, Realistic DX 160 using 40 feet of copper wire.  With apologies to Senator Gramm for his thoughts on firearms, "I have more radios than I need but not as many as I want."
QTH:  Durham, Connecticut (rural setting, 15 miles north of Long Island Sound)

I have to admit, I get the chills every time I hear the Happy Station theme music, especially when, for a few seconds, it goes very serious... before switching to quirky and upbeat again.  See my signature for why.  :)
