It's been announced on FOBL by Eric that he is to leave Big L at the end of the year.
"There is no such thing as a bum note...I only take the opportunity to expand the transcendental vibrations to explore the lesser known highways and byways of musical theory! I find it best to play it loud...that way no one can say you did not mean it! "
It is indeed sad. I've known for some time and fully understand why he's come to his decision. Eric has done so much for Big L and had to put up with a lot, but it wasn't an easy decision to leave.
However, life goes on and make no mistake, Big L goes on. Eric leaves the station much stronger for his involvement. We wish him every success with his new venture.

Zitat von MaryAnnSo sad and I will miss him very much. I can't even imagine BIGL without Eric.
on week-ends you can click the "Listen Live" icons (they are shown only on week-ends) : http://www.kbcradio.eu/ or try your SW receiver on 6095 khz (49 m-band). - it should work at your place in the early mornings ;-) - you will meet a few deejays from the past

Listening via Shortwave in the States has GOT to be better than listening live via tinternet!

yes - but there are some religious station in the 49 m-band from Latin America which are pretty strong and which might interfere and also the Americans are not used to SW ( dxlers excepted of course) - they only listen to AM and FM. - They even don't know Longwave - there is not a single station receivable on LW at the East coast But at least its worth a try if M-A can get hold of a SW radio. Eric would be delighted to receive a reception report from her

Oh, come on! That's technical! As I always say, "Lord save us from Wimmin and things technical"!! ESPECIALLY American Wimmin and technical things!!

Okay - lets see if our American ladies can catch KBC at weekends on 6095 khz SW in the 49 m-band - we should grant them the help of males though to help them to find the SW switch button on their radio. - Its the result that counts..

Hmm! Be interesting to see if they can do this!!

I'll have you know that I have been a SW listener for many years. Although, I have to admit I have not listened for a few years now. I'll have to get out the radio and dust it off and see what the excitement is all about.
Women are like phones: They like to be held, talked to, and touched often. But push the wrong button and your ass is disconnected!

SW listening is an adventure :-) - make sure that you don't have too many electro-smog sources nearby http://www.kbcradio.eu/ ( I think - 5 hours for you) - only at weekends transmitter is on - only 6095 khz 49m-band SW will work for you as older radios don't have DRM
Best experienced with a good old valve (tube) reciever ;-)
Thats true for us blokes - but women will have difficulties in finding the correct frequency by manual dialing - they need those modern digital tuners where you give in the frequency by pressing the buttons

lets see if Pat can do it this weekend - lets give her a chance - eric will love her if she's going to be successful and will send him a reception report - maybe this is going to be some motivation for her
