Happy Sunday all...

The highlight tonight seems to be Escape with ”The man who stole the Bible”...”Flesh and Fantasy” sounds racy...and don’t know much about Jeff Regan, Investigator or The Magic Key...

How’s it going?

Yes, that’s an odd combo—flesh and fantasy and Bible theft. :-)

How’s it going, Vision?

Things are good up here Gina. Made some fantastic pulled pork yesterday. I think eastern NC sauce is my favorite style. You?

When you post this stuff how about listing the time and station frequency this is heard on.

He does. The link to the website states it clearly: WAMU 88.5 FM. It's right there, a click away. And the schedule he posts has the air times for each show, Eastern Time.

FM like TV has a limited signal pattern range based on a direct line of sight.If you’re more than 80 miles away you’ll need a outside antenna with a booster to receive that signal Now AM signals are much different. As one who was raised and learned how to make a radio known as a crystal set was able to get AM signals thousands of miles away because that signal gets reflected off of the magnetosphere without a battery. FM doesn’t.

My career is radio. I understand the signals.
