Georgetown recorded signing on for the day in March 1972 on 3290 kHz
shortwave. Their guitar interval signal is heard at first, a short musical interlude, then announcements in English giving frequencies used and local
time as 5 o'clock in the morning. Initially taped on a reel-to-reel
recorder, a copy was made shortly thereafter on a cassette (now 50 years
old) from which this digital version was made.
