Old Time Radio

[ridgescan]

0400utc Sunday evening, 4840kHz it's the "Talking Machine Show" with Phil Patton. Kinda neat to have this on SW, and he plays super old tunes from the victrola days. Thought I'd put it here because this type stuff is fading fast.
If you guys know of any more old time radio on SW let me know.

In addition to tunning to 4.84 Mhz shortwave from the Genesis Communications Network (GCN)
in Nashville, TN that has 4 x 100,000 watt transmitters and also uses 12.160 and 9.35 (times vary)
If someone doesn't have a shortwave radio, they can listen without fade or static from this link below, etc.

KBC 6095AM plays a selection of older themed material (pre recorded Wolf Man Jack) amongst other formats a definite alternative to the "starched shirt" politico/propaganda programming you can find around the dial...

6095AM Radio

Good info guys thanks. Plus good old VOA still runs some good stuff from our past like rock and jazz etc.
I'll check that link out OZ-on an OT sidenote, speaking of the Wolfman, a MW station out in Modesto, Ca 840kHz started up about 3 months ago.. all oldies modeled after the movie American Graffiti which was filmed out there. Nice to have it in the mix coming in on the wire

"MARION'S ATTIC" old time radio program run on WBCQ is the oldest and the best, bar none.....they play ancient archives and private collections that have not been heard in decades......everything from old victrola lp's to wax recordings to Edison cylindars to archaic music machines.....it's an historical and musical journey every week done with humor and a lovely hostess......

WBCQ 7.490 "MARION'S ATTIC" check WBCQ sked/website for current times..... (used to be sometime Sat and possibly repeated Sun....but WBCQ sked has been in flux and i've been busy elsewhere)......I think 'Marion's Attic' is the oldest continious program on WBCQ.....

enjoy ! you'll hear stuff that you cannot hear anywhere else......
