To me, the most magical interval signal of all time was that of Russia's Radiostantsiya Rodina (which, I believe, means "Radio Homeland"). The IS spoke to me of infinite longing, of distant seas, of lost loves contemplated at sunset. It was beautiful, though probably only a dozen notes or so. The BBC's European Service IS of a morse code "V" on tympani (which also sounded like the opening notes of Beethoven's Fifth) was also haunting. It wasn't too many years ago they were still using it on 3975 kHz. With every good wish, Kevin, WB4AIO. -- http://kevinalfredstrom.com/ |

I have never heard it, even when I was a kid in the 1970's. I have, however, heard this variation: http://www.intervalsignals.net/files...nal_170701.m3u as recently as a few years ago. I don't know if it is still used, but either of these is haunting and full of historic meaning. Bruce |

Andropov and Chernenko times... Brezhnev was a real liberal if compared to those two fellows! |

I've always thought the theme music from Zurich Insurance's commercial
"Change Happens" would be the perfect IS. Played by Spacetrain, it is paradoxically the most calming and uplifting composition I've ever heard - almost mysteriously so. |
