Default A legend returns ....The Laird is back!


Scotland's most successful radio show makes its comeback for shortwave and
web listeners worldwide on November 6th.

Jack McLaughlin's Ceilidh began on floating station 242 Radio Scotland in
1966 as the antithesis of the BBC's rather prim style of presenting
traditional Scottish music. The ship borne station came to an end, but the
show continued on Scotland's first land based commercial stations Radio
Clyde and Radio Forth. And it soon crossed over to television as ITV's
phenomenally successful Thingummyjig, leading to hit versions on stage and
records.

See long and interesting article by Andy Sennitt at
http://medianetwork.blogspot.com/

Aimed now at listeners to shortwave in the USA, Canada, and western Europe,
McLaughlin's Ceilidh airs on *radio six international *on Saturday, November
6th at 8.05pm Eastern (Sunday 0105 GMT) on 5105 kHz and on the web at
radiosix.com.

Please note: from November 1st, Radio Six's 5105 transmissions will run
between 0000 and 0200 UTC to allow for the return to Winter Time in most of
our listening area.

2245z 5105 kHz has an incredibly strong signal, American station discussing
economics. Has not ID'd in over 15 min of talk. Trying to sell gold,
historically about as exciting an investment as tanzanite on the home
shopping network, lol. Anyway, nothing from Scotland could overpower this
guy in the US or Canada.

That station is WBCQ, and it would appear that Radio Six International will be
using that transmitter for its program.

Thanks. I see a reference to that at http://www.wbcq.com/index.php

Earlier I had skipped over that link at looked at a reference to Glenn
Hauser's Shortwave/DX Report at: http://www.dxing.com/dxr/dxld4126.htm where
he mentions:

Verified Jim Cedarstrom's Patriot Trading Group rebroadcast at 6PM on
Friday on 5105 // 9330 // 17495.

Don't know if this stuff sounds familiar to you or not.

Jack
