Listening via K1RA kiwi SDR in Virginia, fair signal at that location. Thanks for the show!

1621 I tried many other mid-Atlantic/NE kiwi SDR's and also the NE Pennsylvania web SDR, but nobody else seems to be picking this up.

Sorry CT Yankee, i signed off at 3PM EST when Matt_B was done with his live broadcast.
those home made pickles ? sweet ? sour ? crunchy garlic flavor ? (my favorite)
edit - oh sweet, i bet they taste really awesome, id buy a few jars from you - i used to grow, process and pack my own tomato sauce in ball jars with home grown garlic as well as make my own pasta and hang it up to dry out - cool !

I had tried listening 1400-1600z with no luck.

As for the pickles - Homemade for thirty five years.  Bought a 1/2 bushel of cukes from a farm nearby.  The dill, garlic, and hot peppers used to flavor were grown in my garden.  The pickles are called "kosher dills".  I guess crunchy garlic off your list - I  use pickling lime to get them "crunchy".

Lol! All the girls I knew used to jump rope to that rhyme in the 60's. Frankie threw some beats behind it and made himself a pile. At least Frankie grew up hearing it, it's not as bad as that Brit, Malcolm McDowell, swiping "Buffalo Gals".

As the Dead Milkmen once sang, "You'll dance to anything."
