"Food Noise"
Another track made on the portable lunchbox #eurorack #modular #synth. Minimal techno, in the vein of experiments I was doing in the 1990s. In fact, a bit reminiscent of my "Radio Interference" album (with a bit of Little Drummer and Radio Two). #music #techno #experimental #minimal #minimalist #shortwave
It is on #soundcloud.

7412khz French... not sure what shortwave station this is. #shortwave
(Update: most certainly this is Radio Romania International on 7410kHz.. and I guess Romanian and French are close?)

Overjoyed to be able to pick up #RadioHabanaCuba on shortwave tonight. After more than a year of the signal being pretty much either absent or unintelligible (my understanding was the result of hurricane damage and long-deferred maintenance), it is coming in strong tonight at 6000 khz.

There are two types of radio operators, those who post in kHz and those who post in MHz.
“Net tomorrow at 1800 EST on 3535.35”
My mind reads that as 3.53535 GHz
Which type are you?
