Huh... I've tried listening for that myself, but 1630KCJJ over in Iowa just walks in here after dark. So, I'm not likely to here that Tater Patch Radio where I am.
I was asked, yet another weird question, of how I would like to be buried, when I finally bite the big one. The answer was actually pretty easy. Face-down, like a certain historical figure in the late 1980's, (I will not mention who, but some of you will get it, and that's enough.) Why??? It would be a burial that will satisfy everyone: (1) My enemies will say that it will show me where to go. (2) On the same point, I can have my enemies kiss my butt. (3) It will temporarily give someone a place to park a bicycle. See??? A WIN / WIN for everyone.

That TPR1630 must be nearer to y'all, since y'all seemed to be the only ones hearing that. Boomer, near P-burgh, has tried jumping from on-line SDR to SDR to catch this. no can do, (As Hall & Oats would sing.) That KCJJ1630,  https://www.1630kcjj.com/   just walks in here too strong in WV. Interesting format that they have though, maybe the latest from Mary J Bly, then AC / DC - Shook Me All Night Long. 
I was asked, yet another weird question, of how I would like to be buried, when I finally bite the big one. The answer was actually pretty easy. Face-down, like a certain historical figure in the late 1980's, (I will not mention who, but some of you will get it, and that's enough.) Why???
