I remember Art Bell hawking Y2K survival merchandise. The commercials were
as funny as the guests. Sadly, my local radio station cuts Coast to Coast
ads and bumper music now.

On weekends I can sometimes tune to 1110 KFAB Nebraska from southern
Manitoba to hear the show uncut.

Art has nice equipment for sure. I was listening to the show last night
when he was speaking about that web page. He hopes it will help other
people become interested in ham radio. I remember when Art was talking
about his new massive antenna one night he was hosting the show. When I
first heard him mention that he was building a large elaborate antenna, I
had a hunch that once it was done, the new antenna would be reported by
Art to have some sort of mysterious properties. Sure enough, after he
finished his antenna, it was reported to be doing all sorts of unexpected
and unexplained things. As a matter of course, Tesla came into things...
LOL. I just knew that was coming. I like Art a lot and I like to listen
to Coast To Coast every now and then, especially when they have guests
that are on the level like Seth Shostak or when they have guests that are
way over the top like Ed Dames. Though every time I listen to the show,
I'm reminded why it is a four hour long show. The reason being is that it
is three and a half hours of commercials, news breaks and bumper music.
They manage to get in a poultry 30 minutes or so of content between
ringing the cash register. If it wasn't for that, I'd listen more often.
