I'm tired of picking up religion nuts on my shortwave!
 

I'm tired of hearing that crap. Anyone got any idea where I could find
some music?

No to be a smart ass, but I have been listening to SW for 41 years
next month and in that time it has always had more then it's share
of religion.And when the religion is missing then we had the !@@$
cold war propadanga. NK and Cuba are the last still fighting
that war.

The CBC runs vinyl cafe' every sat morning from 10:00~11:00E,
17:--~18:00Z on 13.655 and other freqs. Good mix of odd music.
Last night they (CBC) had a nice hour long music preview on 9.?
from 9:00 until after 10:30E, 2:00~3:30Z. I didn't note the exact
freq because I was windong coils for a set ofAM/MW reject fitlers.
One to pass only above ~1.8MHz and one to pass only below ~525KHz. I
have a fairly close (~2.5M, ~3km) radio station tha produces all sorts
of in band trash. I get in on all the radio I have
listened with. Easier for me to filter them then to talk to the FCC or
their rather dull "engineer". I think he works there when he isn't
picking up trash.

But the cold war stuff was (and still perhaps is) some of the funniest stuff on
shortwave.

Congrats on 41 years, I think I'm at around 40 or so.

When I want to hear music, I put in a CD. If I'm in my car, there's
probably a cassette tape spinning. Personally, shortwave to me is for
human voice.
I'm not opposed to music on shortwave, but the fidelity isn't going
to be there. Purchased music allows me to have choice stuff without
interuption.
The religious people might play some gospel music for you, but that
might make your skin crawl.

One of the first times I ever heard Gene Scott was when I stopped spinning
my dial in order to hear "Johnny B. Goode". Imagine my surprise when the
music ended, and the begging for more money began.

-That- is when my skin began to crawl.

Deep down Louisiana close to New Orleans
Way back up in the woods among the evergreens
There stood a radio station made of earth and wood
Where lived a country preacher named Johnny B. Goode
Who never ever learned to read or write so well
But he could play the suckers just like a ringing a church bell

Go go
Go Johnny go
Go
Go Johnny go
Go
Go Johnny go
Go
Go Johnny go
Go
Johnny B. Goode




He used to carry his microphones in a gunny sack
Go sit beneath the tree by the railroad track
Oh, the listeners would see him sitting in the shade
Humming with the rhythm that the cash flow made
People passing by they would stop and say
Oh my that little country boy could pray

Go go
Go Johnny go
Go
Go Johnny go
Go
Go Johnny go
Go
Go Johnny go
Go
Johnny B. Goode

His mother told him "Someday you will be a rich man,
And you will be the leader of a big old church.
Many people donating from miles around
To hear you pray with music when the sun go down
Maybe someday your name will be in lights
Saying 'Please send more cash' tonight."

Go go
Go Johnny go
Go go go Johnny go
Go go go Johnny go
Go go go Johnny go
Go
Johnny B. Goode

That's so close to blasphemy that I...well, being an old blasphemer myself I
can't really criticize. But adulterating the words of "Our Father", aka
Chuck...that's taking things a bit far, you know?

Mmm...you may be able to do it faster, but I'll bet you can't do it better.

Radio France International plays jazz. There are pop music shows on the
BBC.

Does Radio Havana Cuba still play the national anthem on some tape deck
that has mega wow and flutter? That might pass for music.
