Foundations of Amateur Radio Around the world are thousands of associations, groups of people, clubs if you like, that represent radio amateurs. Some of those associations are anointed with a special status, that of "member society" or "peak body", which allows them to represent their country with their own governments and on the international stage to the ITU, the International Telecommunications Union, through a global organisation, the IARU, the International Amateur Radio Union. Some of these are known across our whole community, the ARRL in the USA, the RSGB in the UK, and the WIA in Australia. Some much less so, the CRAC, the Chinese Radio Amateurs Club, or the ARSI, the Amateur Radio Society of India, for example. In an attempt to get a deeper understanding of what distinguishes these organisations, I visited a dozen member society websites. Cultural sensibilities and aesthetics aside, the variety and sense of priority is both pleasing and astounding. Starting close to home, the WIA, the Wireless Institute of Australia, shows news as the most important and the top story is a radio contact between the International Space Station and a school, held about two weeks ago. The ERAU, the Estonian Radio Amateurs Association, features an article about the 2025 General Meeting outlining who was there, what was discussed and thanking the participants for their contributions. When I visited, the ARRL, the American Radio Relay League, top news item, was the renewed defence of the 902-928 MHz Amateur Radio Band, from a few days ago. The most important issue for the ARRL is that you read the latest edition of QST magazine, but only if you're a member. The RSGB, the Radio Society of Great Britain, has an odd landing page that links to the main site, which features much of the same content. The latest news is "Mental Health Awareness Week" and encourages us to celebrate kindness in our community. The DARC, the German Amateur Radio Club, has a page full of announcements and the top one was an article about current solar activity including a coronal hole and various solar flares. The ERASD, the Egyptian Radio Amateurs Society for Development, uses qsl.net as its main website. It features many images with text, presumably in Arabic, that unfortunately I was not able to translate. Curiously the landing page features some English text that welcomes all interested to join. I confess that I love the juxtaposition between a Yaesu FT-2000 transceiver and the images of Tutankhamun and the pyramids. The RAC, the Radio Amateurs of Canada, use their homepage to promote its purpose, and features many pictures of their bi-monthly magazine, which you can only read if you're a member, which is where many of the homepage links seem to go. The RCA, the Radio Club of Argentina, is promoting the 2024-2025 Railway Marathon, including links to descriptions of what constitutes a Railway Activation, how to reserve your station, and upcoming and past activations. There's also a reminder to renew your license. The ARSI, the Amateur Radio Society of India, has a very sparse landing page showing their mission and not much else. Clicking around gives you lots of information about the history, activities, awards and the like. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find out how to become licensed in India. There's hardly any images. In contrast, the URA, the Union of Radio Amateurs of Andorra, lands you on a page with contact details and not much else. Clicking through the site gives you lots of pictures of happy people and maps, lots of maps. The KARL, the Korean Amateur Radio League, features an announcement with a link to the 24th Amateur Radio Direction Finding, from a week ago, but it requires a login to actually read it. The JARL, the Japan Amateur Radio League, features an announcement to a form you can complete to join the "List of stations from which you do not wish to receive QSL cards." The NZART, the New Zealand Association of Radio Transmitters, features a big button to latest news and clicking on it shows the "Jock White Field Day", which was held several months ago. I wasn't able to see the CRAC, the Chinese Radio Amateurs Club, since the page didn't load for me. The "Wayback machine", also known as archive.org, from a capture a few days ago, showed a news item announcing the intent to organise the 1st Class C Amateur Radio Technical "something", I say "something" because I cannot actually load the article and see what it has to say. The event was scheduled for a month ago, the announcement was from several months ago. Content aside, finding sites was interesting too, mind you, there's plenty of member associations that don't have any web presence at all. Is that by choice, or necessity? The IARU list of member societies conflicts with the list of national organisations shown on Wikipedia. The IARU has about 160 entries, I say about, since the list isn't really formatted as much as it's congealed. Let's just say, perhaps a table for tabular data might be a novel approach. Wikipedia is slightly better formatted, it lists 93 national organisations. As it happens, both include a link to the national organisation for China, which is either the Chinese Radio Sports Association, with apparently two different acronyms, either CRSAOA, or CRSA, or if you believe the IARU as a source, it's the one I mentioned earlier, the CRAC. I don't know which one is right, but at least we can assume that the IARU page was updated formally, rather than edited by someone on the internet. Regardless of which one is the "real" Chinese national amateur radio organisation, none of the websites loaded for me. Let's move on. It's interesting that several non-English sites like Korea, Japan and Germany feature a button that allows their site to be translated into English. What's even more interesting is that the English version of the site is not in any way the same content. In many cases it appears to be information relevant to English visitors rather than a translation. One notable exception is Estonia, which allows a visitor to read their site in Estonian or English right out of the box. Unsurprisingly, the ARRL website has no buttons for Spanish, even though that represents about 13 percent of the USA population, let alone any other language. I'd encourage you to visit a few and see what you can learn about the other members of our community around the world. My visits leave me with questions. What do these organisations stand for? What do they do? Are they there for amateurs, for aspirant members, the general public, for regulators, for their members, for fund raising and advertising, or international visitors and tourism? It seems to me that looking at just a few of these organisations reveals a great many things about how they understand their own role and how they deliver service and just how much money they have to play with to make that happen. I'll leave you to ponder how effective they might be and what your role is in that endeavour. I'm Onno VK6FLAB

In this webinar, the CardioNerds collaborated with the Cardiogenic Shock Working Group (CSWG) to discuss LV unloading and the updated AMI guidelines, which upgraded transvalvular flow pumps to a Class 2A recommendation in AMI shock. Dr. Rachel Goodman and Dr. Gurleen Kaur from CardioNerds were joined by Dr. Navin Kapur (Tufts Medical Center), Dr. Shashank Sinha (INOVA Fairfax Hospital), and Dr. Rachna Kataria (Brown University) from the CSWG. Together, they explore a case of an older woman who presented with inferior STEMI and was found to have complete occlusion of an anomalous single coronary artery originating from the right coronary cusp and supplying the entire left ventricle. She was treated with DES to the anomalous RCA. Her course was complicated by AMI shock with re-occlusion of the DES, which was treated with thrombectomy and balloon angioplasty. An IABP was placed. After transfer to a tertiary care center, a pulmonary artery catheter revealed a CI of 0.96. With worsening shock, rising lactate, and end organ dysfunction, the team proceeded with VA-ECMO and Impella CP for LV unloading. Her lactate subsequently normalized.

RCA werd in 1977 opgericht door Roger Ramaekers, al heettehet toen nog Graffiti. Tom Van den Bergh liep op dat moment nog niet rond op deze wereld — laat staan in de marketingwereld. In 2010 kruisten hun paden, nadat Tom eerst tien jaar aan de adverteerderskant werkte en zijn hart verloor aan het bouwen van sterke merken. Hij stapte aan boord als strategisch directeur bij het toen al stevige RCA.Negen jaar later besloten de toenmalige eigenaars omsleutelmedewerkers te laten participeren in het kapitaal. Zo wilden ze hun verankering en de continuïteit van het bedrijf verder verzekeren. Het werd de tweede Management Buy-Out in de geschiedenis van RCA. De missie was duidelijk: hoe maken we van RCA een bedrijf dat nog heel lang kan blijven bestaan? Op datzelfde moment nam Tom de rol van CEO op zich om deze visie verder vorm te geven — net vóór de wereld werd geconfronteerd met COVID. Wat hem vooral is bijgebleven, is de impact van die crisis op de bedrijfscultuur, die net zo bepalend was voor de langetermijnambitie.Ondanks de volatiliteit van die periode verloor Tom hetgrotere plaatje niet uit het oog. Onder zijn leiding werd RCA verder geprofessionaliseerd, met de steun van een externe Raad van Bestuur. Eén van die bestuurders was Jo Mellemans, CEO van Glowi (bekend van o.a. Het Poetsbureau). Toen Tom zijn visie deelde om RCA te transformeren van een klassiek bureau naar een collectief van expertcenters, nam hun goede relatie een onverwachte wending. Jo moest zijn bestuursmandaat neerleggen wegens een belangenconflict: Glowi koesterde zelf plannen in de marketingwereld.Niet veel later kwam ook het bureau HeadOffice op de markt. De puzzel viel in elkaar: Glowi verwierf beide bedrijven en gaf zo mee vorm aan de visie van Tom. Daarmee ontstond de basis voor een nieuwe groep met 150 medewerkers en de start van een ambitieus buy-and-build traject. De sleutelmedewerkers — onder wie Tom — stapten opnieuw mee in als aandeelhouder. Kort na de opname van deze aflevering volgde de lancering van de nieuwe naam van de groep Friends of Cartel. RCA werd omgedoopt tot Cartel Agency.

For this episode we're joined – all the way from L.A. – by special guest Bob Merlis. The former head of publicity at Warner-Reprise Records in Burbank talks us through his musical odyssey from his Brooklyn childhood to his continuing PR work for the likes of ZZ Top and Carlene Carter. We hear about Bob's start at Record World in late '60s New York and the early '70s pieces he wrote for that trade publication and for Warners' short-lived Words & Music. Our guest then talks about his brief stints at RCA and Albert Grossman's Bearsville Records before touching on key acts and moments in the nearly three decades he spent in Burbank: Little Feat's Lowell George, Jerry Wexler producing Etta James and Warners president Joe Smith roasting the infamous Morris Levy. Clips from Dave Zimmer's 1988 audio interview with Neil Young prompt discussion of that quintessential Reprise artist (and his comrades in CSNY). After Mark quotes from pieces about Elektra Records dropping the MC5 and free-improv guitarist Derek Bailey, Jasper talks us out with reflections on the musical passions of footballer Rio Ferdinand and Houston rapper Chamillionaire. Many thanks to special guest Bob Merlis. For info on Bob's PR work, visit https://mfhpr.com/m-f-h-at-20. Pieces discussed: R&B is B(l)ack and Involved, Jerry Wexler Crosses Tracks for Tony Joe, Todd Rundgren Warps Time, Lowell George Talks About Little Feat, Little Feat Keeps On Truckin', Little Feat: How To Construct a "Critics' Band", Neil Young audio, Elektra Records Kicks Out MC5, Derek Bailey: Themes on Improvisation, The Record Doctor: Rio Ferdinand and Chamillionaire: Change.

Cela fait exactement 100 jours que Donald Trump a signé son retour à la Maison Blanche. Entre déclarations chocs, annonces fracassantes et décrets... de nombreux Centrafricains suivent avec beaucoup d'intérêt la gouvernance du 47e président américain. À Bangui, la capitale, les avis sont contradictoires. Si les uns pensent que Donald Trump représente l'espoir d'un monde nouveau, d'autres y voient des signes du bouleversement de l'ordre mondial.   Reportage de notre correspondant à Bangui L'ambiance est à la fois décontractée et studieuse dans la bibliothèque de l'Alliance française de Bangui. Élèves, étudiants et fonctionnaires sont confortablement installés. Parmi eux, Maurice Guimendego. Ce professeur d'histoire géographie est concentré sur un livre intitulé Donald Trump : faiseur de paix ou apôtre du désordre mondial ? : « Donald Trump passe pour une espèce de météorite qui vient s'abattre sur un monde qui déjà marchait claudicant. Au plan intérieur, c'est une véritable désillusion. Pour être protectionniste, il n'y a peut-être pas besoin d'augmenter les taxes d'une manière vertigineuse. Jusqu'à près de 150% pour certains pays, je crois que c'est la Chine. » Au rez-de-chaussée du bâtiment, un groupe de jeunes discutent dans le hall. Chacun donne son avis, mais la centaine de décrets pris par Donald Trump a marqué l'esprit de Moustapha Bouba : « Il a fait un temps record en signant 79 décrets en 40 jours. Il a changé la vision du monde, là où on peut dire le protectionnisme exacerbé de Donald Trump. Ce qui m'a beaucoup touché, c'est par rapport à sa remise en cause de l'engagement des États-Unis envers l'Otan. Il a débuté d'une manière radicale. Espérons peut-être s'il y aura un changement, peut-être... » Le gel de l'aide américaine par Donald Trump a suscité choc et émoi dans le pays. Alors que le dernier rapport du Bureau de la coordination des affaires humanitaires des Nations unies (Ocha) a révélé qu'environ 37% des Centrafricains sont extrêmement vulnérables en 2025, la suspension de cette aide a un impact direct sur la RCA selon Jefferson, un autre jeune Centrafricain : « La République centrafricaine est un pays qui n'est pas développé comme les États-Unis. Avec le blocage de ces aides, ça rend certaines organisations inefficaces. Il y a certaines personnes qui sont maintenant au chômage, et certains ménages en souffrent aussi en République centrafricaine. Les populations vulnérables bénéficient souvent de ces aides-là. » Pour l'historien Maurice Guimendego, la gouvernance actuelle de Donald Trump met du plomb dans l'aile des Occidentaux et donnera la latitude nécessaire aux Brics, un groupe de dix pays dont le Brésil, la Russie, l'Inde ou la Chine pour conquérir le monde : « Si vous prenez la population de l'ensemble des pays qui constituent les Brics, ça constitue quand même près de 60 à 65% de la population mondiale. Les Brics se sont constitués pour contrebalancer les effets trop importants, envahissant, des États-Unis et des autres. » Aujourd'hui, de nombreux Centrafricains demandent l'implication sans failles des États-Unis dans la gestion des crises sécuritaires dans le monde, notamment en République centrafricaine.

Repasando algunas de sus producciones históricas volvemos a los cimientos de Panart, la etiqueta pionera que con carácter independiente, sentó las bases de la industria discográfica nacional. En 1944, con una producción discográfica regular, el ingeniero de sonido Ramón Sabat marcó un antes y un después en el panorama de producción, edición y difusión de la música en la isla. Hasta la aparición de Panart, todo lo atractivo y apetecible que acontecía artística y musicalmente lo registraban emporios norteamericanos. Entre ellos los de mayor presencia Columbia y Victor, esta última fusionada ya en los primeros años 40 con la Radio Corporation of América (RCA). Aún latente la segunda guerra mundial, Sabat comenzó a instalarse en la habanera calle San Miguel no.410. Con el equipamiento técnico mínimo e indispensable, listo para comenzar a grabar y prensar sus producciones, echaba a andar una maquinaria de difusión exitosa que, en un país esencialmente musical, trazó un camino señero para otros emprendedores de la época. Nacía entonces la industria fonográfica independiente cubana. Hacia 1960 la representaban poco más de 30 sellos con unos volúmenes de producción estable y con una presencia importante en el extranjero. La política cultural en función del control absoluto y la estatalización de los medios de difusión, entronizada por el régimen militar instaurado en 1959 (a través de las llamadas "intervenciones") comenzó a poner punto final al flujo de promoción musical sustentado por una eficiente maquinaria de producción, edición y difusión de música popular cubana que funcionaba maravillosamente dentro y fuera de la Isla. El 30 de mayo de 1961 la Panart fue "nacionalizada". Ramón Sabat, su fundador, forzado al exilio murió en los Estados Unidos el 15 de marzo de 1986 completamente olvidado. Los históricos estudios que fundó hace más de ocho décadas en La Habana los ocupa EGREM. Las memorias de la industria discográfica nacional que, en la frontera de los años 50 a los 60, gozaba de maravillosa salud, nos sirve de pretexto para reverenciar el arte del pianista Frank Emilio Flynn. Así retomamos las ediciones del sello independiente "Tropicana". El productor radial Adolfo Seeman quien desempeñaba sus labores en la emisora habanera CMOX con un perfil dedicado al jazz, propició en dos álbumes el debut discografico del llamado "Quinteto de Música Moderna". Junto a Frank Emilio: Papito Hernández en contrabajo, Tata Güines en las tumbadoras, Guillermo Barreto alternando drums y pilas, y Gustavo Tamayo en güiro. Producciones "Tropicana" afianzando en el mercado discografico independiente, la categoría del jazz cubano. Seguimos repasando la banda sonora de los primeros años 60. El argentino Luis Aguilé, precedido por sus grabaciones para la etiqueta Odeon, a la par de conquistar un público netamente adolescente, encontró en Cuba una fenomenal plaza que impulsó su carrera. Aparte de la mega influencia de ídolos norteamericanos como Elvis, Paul Anka o Neil Sedaka, también por esas fechas las grabaciones de "Los Cinco Latinos" y las del mexicano Manolo Muñoz fueron conformando un sedimento estético y sonoro donde estrellas nacientes como el rockero de Palma Soriano: Luisito Bravo se dieron a conocer. Seguimos conectados con la industria del disco independiente cubano. Hacia 1961, en pleno auge el formato de los combos, las grabaciones de Luisito Bravo con los arreglos y acompañamientos del imprescindible Eddy Gaytán, producidas por la etiqueta Velvet, esbozaban la categoría del pop rock cubano, abriendo un camino que muy pronto seguirían otros exponentes. Algunos de los abuelos del pop rock cubano se apoyaron en estilos como el twist, el wawá, el gogó, el yeyé y el shake. Sobrevivieron en un ambiente sonoro marcado por la estatalización del sistema de difusión donde sus canciones no tenían mucho qué hacer. Luisito Bravo, Lita del Real, Raul Gómez con Los Bucaneros, Danny Puga y Luisa María Güell despiden el programa.

Discover the untold story of rodeo legend Sid McFarland—55 years of bullfighting, clowning, and cowboy grit in this unforgettable Beyond the Chutes Rodeo podcast episode.In this heartfelt episode of Beyond the Chutes, host Doug Simcox sits down at the Kickback Ranch in Raymer, Alabama, with legendary rodeo clown and bullfighter Sid McFarland. A city-raised kid turned rodeo lifer, Sid shares his incredible 55-year journey through the world of rodeo—from his first RCA rodeo in 1969 to his emotional final performance at the Cody Night Rodeo in 2024.Sid opens up about how a chance trip to a local rodeo as a teen sparked a life-defining passion, how mentors like Buddy Martin and Junior Meek shaped his path, and how the rodeo became both his career and his community. From working seven nights a week in Cody, Wyoming, to clowning alongside his son Trent, Sid's reflections offer wisdom, humor, and heart. He shares the deeper meaning behind his signature clown makeup, stories from the road, and the lessons he passed on to the next generation—including his most important: “It doesn't matter if there are 10 people or 10,000—give them the full show.”This episode is a celebration of family, grit, laughter, and the friendships forged in the dirt of rodeo arenas across America.

Thanks for having me. It's an exciting event that we're here at. So we're really looking forward to this. Allen Hall: There is so much happening at Gulf Wind at the minutes. Uh, just been watching some of your intellectual property pop out and some of the new things that are at this show. Uh, all kinds of areas that you're investing in, in terms of blade repairs that have been needed for probably two or three years and. At this point you, you have good solutions. The one I think we're most interested to hear about is the blade route, bushing, or insert. Repair that happens of tower because Joel Saxum: everybody's asking about it. I think that's the important thing there is, first off, we need to get some common language around what this problem is. Yeah. So everybody's calling it root, bushings root and this infusion like, ah, what are we actually calling? What are the terms, how you brand this? Exactly. David King: Yeah. I mean, just you say it's really been a long time coming. It's something we've been involved with now for well [00:01:00] over. Three years, and we got introduced originally as an RCA. And so, you know, when you get into something like a root cause analysis, you know, one of the first things you gotta do is actually establish the terms you're gonna use, establish the definitions, create a common framework that you can communicate around. And so when it comes to this particular issue, a lot of it really starts with how do customers get sensitized to this? We've seen everything from some customers getting sensitized through, uh, unfortunately a blade failure. A blade that ends up on the ground. Joel Saxum: Yeah, David King: that's probably the worst scenario. We've seen others where they'll see things like. Dust, uh, on the outside of the gel coat that's starting to build up, uh, gapping, where you have fundamentally a, a visible gap forming between the blade root and the pitch bearing, uh, where you see visible daylight in some cases. Yeah. Um, you really want to try and catch things, obviously much earlier than that, but kind of the, the, the common themes here all around a loss of connection between the metal root bushing and the composite laminate, which caused the blade to become loose from the pitch bearing. So just kind of walk through that system maybe a little bit. Um, you've got the composite blade which has to transfer [00:02:00] load into a metal pitch bearing, Joel Saxum: right? David King: Metal pitch bearing's gotta be able to spin so the blade can pitch, produce, power, and do all the things we need to do. And it's one of the most complicated parts of the blade really. 'cause you're trying to transfer load from composite to metal and you have this massive stiffness difference between metal. And composites. And so it takes some very clever engineering to bring those things together and, um, get an even load distribution. And so the way that's done today is through a metal root bushing. So it's essentially a, uh, precast metal piece, um, that has geometry to it that allows both mechanical and a chem...

David "Ghosty" Wills, host of "We Say Yeah: A Cliff Richard Podcast" and the Vintage Rock and Pop Shop joins Justin this week to explore how the "rockabilly revival" era, which technically spanned a near 20-year period between roughly 1970-1990 but culminated around 1981-83, led to the release of two compilations of Elvis material that RCA felt best captured his image as a rebellious rock and roll icon. From the 50s nostalgia of the 1970s to the success of acts like The Stray Cats, Robert Gordon, Dave Edmunds and Shakin' Stevens, Justin picks Ghosty's brain for his memories of becoming a young Elvis fan during this fascinating period of revitalization for classic rock and roll. For Song of the Week, Ghosty brings a thought-provoking finale to the main topic by looking for insights in The Stray Cats's 1992 recording "Elvis on Velvet;" a psychobilly takedown of the media's intense (and weird) fascinations with Elvis. Meanwhile, Justin heads back to the '50s myself to hear how Elvis transformed the country standard "Have I Told You Lately That I Love You" into a jaunty, bopping tune on the 1957 "Loving You" album. Be sure to check out "We Say Yeah!" on all major podcast platforms! As mentioned early in the episode, you can also hear Ghosty interviewed about his work as a voice actor on the podcast "4Kids Flashback."

La gouvernance locale joue un rôle crucial pour rétablir les services de base et la cohésion sociale pour les populations en République centrafricaine (RCA), estime l'Expert indépendant de l'ONU sur la situation des droits de l'homme en RCA.En marge de son exposé, mardi, devant le Conseil des droits de l'homme des Nations Unies à Genève, Yao Agbetse a accordé un entretien à Juliette Maigné, d'ONU Info Genève.Dans cet entretien, il explique que renforcer les pouvoirs locaux en République centrafricaine, pays meurtri par un conflit sévissant depuis 2012, est « un outil permettant d'étendre la restauration de l'autorité de l'État sur le territoire et de servir aussi comme levier pour la réconciliation nationale ».« C'est à travers la gouvernance locale qu'on pourra apporter le service de sécurité, le service de justice, la reconstruction des marchés, des écoles de santé, des infrastructures socio-culturelles nécessaires pour que les populations puissent jouir effectivement de leurs droits, le droit aux loisirs, le droit à l'emploi, le droit à un état de santé mentale et physique suffisant », ajoute-t-il.

Leah Andreone in conversation with David Eastaugh Andreone's first album, Veiled, produced by Rick Neigher, was released by RCA in 1996. It included the hit single "It's Alright, It's OK", which charted in the U.S., Europe, and Australia. It was introspective whereas her next album, Alchemy, was more sexual and intimate. Andreone's lyrics are often treatises on psychology, reflecting her interest in the subject.

While new episodes of Breaking Walls are on hiatus I'll be going back and posting the older episodes beginning with this episode on the birth of radio. —————————— In Breaking Walls Episode 76, we pick up our story on the history of American dramatic radio after the sinking of the Titanic in April of 1912. The time between 1912 and 1922 saw three competing interests battle for control of the wireless airwaves as wireless telegraphy transitioned into radio broadcasting. These three interests were big private business, individual HAM radio operators, and the US Government. Highlights: • How the Titanic's Sinking changed Guglielmo Marconi's business • The Radio Act of 1912 - What it portended • Charles Herrold and KCBS San Francisco • Lee Deforest sells out to AT&T • Edwin Howard Armstrong invents regeneration, and later the superheterodyne receiver • War comes to Europe • The Navy takes over wireless • How World War I caused radio technology to boom • AT&T, Westinghouse, General Electric, and the newly formed RCA make a deal • David Sarnoff's Rise to power • KDKA and the birth of regular broadcasting • Todays' introduction music of Metamorphosis No. 2 was arranged for harp and vibraphone by David DePeters and played by Elizabeth Hainen.

This week, Bec and Justin explore the history behind the Extended Play format and how this record format played an important part in the consumption of Elvis's music by fans during his early career with RCA, and also briefly explore some of the more obscure and interesting international EPs that caught their eyes while digging into the topic.  Then for Song of the Week, both hosts go for some serious weepers, tackling iconic 70s breakup songs, with Justin selecting Elvis's melancholy version of Tony Joe White's "For Ol' Times Sake" and Bec spotlighting the heartbreaking 1972 hit "Separate Ways," which Elvis fans know was co-written by Elvis's good friend Red West, who gave the song a slightly autobiographical bent.

Barry Sadler's "Ballad of the Green Berets" reached number one in the Billboard Hot 100 on 5th March, 1966 - the only pro-Vietnam War hit to ever top the charts. Before it even hit radio stations, Sadler had been performing the song at military bases and patriotic events, setting the stage for its massive success. RCA pushed it hard, knowing that in early ‘66, America's support for the war was still strong. It wasn't just a pop song—it was an anthem, played on news programmes and variety shows alike, capturing the hearts of those who wanted to stand with the troops. The song sold millions, making Sadler a household name. But unlike charity-driven tributes, the money didn't go to war relief—it went straight into Sadler's pocket. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly consider why this single is no longer associated with the Vietnam War, despite being the biggest hit of the year; discover how Sadler was injured in the field by a booby trap; and tour through the bar fights, failed country music dreams, and, in one particularly dramatic moment, deadly love triangle that made up Sadler's final act...  Further Reading: • 'War's Song' (History Net, 2017): https://www.historynet.com/wars-song/ • ‘I Served in Vietnam.

On this week's show we have a review of the Audioengine B1 Next Gen Bluetooth Music Receiver and we take a look at how Streaming impacts viewing on top network shows. We also read your emails and take a look at the week's news. News: Panasonic is ‘prepared to sell' its TV business 56% of Super Bowl LIX Viewers Expected to Stream Event Tubi had the fastest Super Bowl streaming experience YouTube Viewership On TV Screens Exceeds Mobile For First Time In U.S. Audioengine B1 Next Gen Bluetooth Music Receiver I recently upgraded my audio setup with the new Audioengine B1 Next Gen Bluetooth Music Receiver ($189 direct from Audioengine), because I like buying stuff! The previous model served me well but has gotten a bit long in the… wait for it, Bluetooth.  Like the previous version, the Next Gen turns any wired stereo receiver or powered speaker system into a wireless one. The high-fidelity audio is outstanding, there is support for 16, 24, or even 32-bit quality with the advanced Bluetooth 5.3 and aptX Adaptive support. One cool feature is that the indicator light on the front panel turns orange when you have an aptX connection, so you know at a glance that you are listening at the highest fidelity. I had to borrow my brother-in-law's android phone to test this out. Apple, why won't you give me aptX??  The music sounded excellent. I did my best to A/B with the original B1 using AAC vs the next gen B1 using aptX listening to music I am intimately familiar with. It was hard to hear any major improvement. I could convince myself there was an improvement only after listening to specific parts of a track multiple times. Practically speaking, it really won't matter. If you currently own the previous B1 I would recommend skipping this upgrade unless you stream from long distances. More on that in a bit.  With that said, the high bitrate AAC files on the new B1 sounded excellent and I did not have too much aptX envy.  Another impressive feature is the long-range connectivity. The specification says it will maintain a connection 100 feet away without any drop in sound quality. I walked to all corners of my house behind multiple doors, and could not break the connection. This is a big improvement over the original and is nice if you are responsible for the music at a get-together and you walk around the house chatting with your guests.  The inclusion of both RCA and Optical output options means you can easily integrate it into any existing audio setup. The B1 has a sturdy aluminum housing and the fact that you don't need any special software makes setup a breeze!  The Audioengine B1 is a recommended product for anyone looking to elevate their wired audio experience with wireless streaming.  Here's How Much Streaming Impacts Viewing on Top Network Shows It's a pretty well-established fact that streaming has a sizable effect on ratings for shows that originate on broadcast networks. A new batch of data from Nielsen for this season shows just how big that impact can be. Full article here…
