Easy Listening Radio: Radio That is Easy to Listen To! (anencoreperformance)


In this week's (encoreperformance) edition of the Random Access Thought for the week ending November 8th, the subject is Easy Listening Radio or perhaps more to the point: Radio that is easy to listen to. This admittedly off-Broadway performance attempts a linkage (albeit quite tenuous) between listening to broadcast AM and FM radios, shortwave receivers, and police scanners and yet being able to rest comfortably and even doze off at the same time.

This week's Random Access Thought was recorded in various rooms deep within the N2FNH Hacienda using my remarkably inexpensive forty-nine dollar Radio Shack analog cassette tape recorder. The associated Random Access Promo features Cigman Krasnov, his sister Marilyn and my Number One and Only Son Zachary. By the way, one of my extemporaneous rants took place in my bathroom. However, on playback, that typical bathroom background reverb was not clearly evident so I added bathroom echo during the editing session.

So download this week's This Week in Amateur Radio Ham Service and the TWIARi Broadcast version, or even better connect to http://www.twiar.org/n2fnh/RATParts Look for file number RAT080521_EZLR.cab, right click and "Save Target As" to your hardddrive. Use your WinZIP or IZArc to extract the select RAF audio WAV file inside!

Not only is this Random Access Thought an encore performance, but this post is an encore performance too! (exceptforthephotoeffect)

P.S: MNOAOS Zach voiced the slug line ("...that's the subject of the next...") in the associated RAT Easy Listening promo and really got into being a beautiful music announcer. Since he knew his father had voiced for a number of beautiful music stations in the 1970's including the Schulke client WEZG in Syracuse, he was a natural for the assignment!
