\"AtTheTone\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Almost five years ago, I wrote about a unique collection of archived recordings called\u00a0At The Tone: A Little History of NIST Radio Stations WWV & WWVH<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Producer Myke Dodge Weiskopf\u00a0recently released a new\u00a0and\u00a0expanded edition of At The Tone <\/em>which\u00a0is now available for purchase and download<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Myke describes the update:<\/p>\n

“The new edition significantly expands on the previous CD reissue from 2009. It incorporates a bunch of tapes sourced from the original announcer tracks made by Jane Barbe herself for WWVH, as well as a handful of vintage broadcast recordings previously left out of the set. I’ve also taken the opportunity to clean up and remaster the set overall, so it’s a much more cohesive listening experience as a body of work.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Click here to purchase the new digital edition of At The Tone<\/em><\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Please comment!<\/h2>\n

Myke is also giving away a free download of At The Tone<\/em> to a lucky\u00a0SWLing Post<\/em> reader!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Simply comment on this post<\/a>, noting the\u00a0first time you\u00a0heard WWV: note both the year and the model of receiver used.<\/p>\n

For example, I would comment:\u00a0“The year was 1976 and the receiver was an RCA Model 6K3 console radio.” <\/em><\/p>\n

Myke will pick a winner from the comments next Wednesday (November 25th). If the winner has already purchased\u00a0the expanded edition of At The Tone<\/em>, Myke will reimburse the purchase. Good luck!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
