Nostalgia

Long before the internet and multi-channel TV many of us listened to the world on shortwave radios. This is a recording of the interval and announcement signals of long ago. Most are long gone now. For those of you that recall these, happy memories!

Old shortwave interval signals

As a child, I enjoyed making simple shortwave receivers and listening to broadcast stations from around the world. These were the days long before the internet and emails. Hearing stations from across the planet was magical. Most broadcasters used interval signals to say who they were. These are some from that time. Nostalgia!

Hearing some of these sends a tingle down my spine.
