  • Do you remember recording music from Pick of the Pops on a Sunday evening? The old reel to reel tape recorder whirling away, recording your favourite tracks. More on nicknames, gardens, the doctor... and more!

    Hi Ray, we should call your chiming clock "Little Ben". i think I have just nicked named your clock!!! LOL. When my dad was a school, he knew a school friend, who was known as "Stovepipe", because he was very tall and also wore a very high hat. One day, the school bell fell on him and after that he was known as "Shorty"!!! We should all now celebrate Independence Day, especially after winning that world war against those horrible alien invaders....er...oh, wait a minute, that was a movie wasn't it??? I still have plenty of cassette tapes, which mostly contain all my radio DX recordings. I have been recording radio DX since the 1960s. Here is an idea for Sunday's podcast. What is the furthest distant location that you have ever traveled to, measuring the distance from your home? Also, have you ever become lost while traveling? Anyway, take care. Rob in Melbourne Australia.

      Hi Rob, I like the name little Ben. Love the nicknames, too. I’ve never been lost when travelling. I think the furthest I have been is to Los Angeles. I like the idea of DX recordings. I wish I’d done that.

      @@raysrants I have done radio DX audio recordings since the 1960's with my first "official" tape being on August 3 1968. I also did audio recordings of TV reception both DX and local, especially with the test pattern music and commencement of daily programming. from 1987, I started making TV DX video tapes and have built up a collection there also. These days, i go on to the remote online tuners and SDR's and record DX catches on them. Cataloguing is the biggest job and I am well behind with that. I think I need about 500 years retirement to get it all done!!! LOL.
