Thanks, Randy, for your comments about "Unshackled." That show has been
around since 1950. I live in an area of South Dakota where I cannot receive
that program. I am happy that Pacific Garden Mission makes the shows
available to download from their website.
Another long-time radio program that is unavailable to me is the Mormon
Tabernacle Choir (Music and the spoken [removed]). I understand that
people with satellite dishes can get this program.

Hi Folks. Another collector has been in touch with me, looking for any
broadcasts by the Derek New Sextet, probably BBC Radio 2, 1967 - 1969.
If you can help, drop me a line off-list and I can put you in touch with him.
Cheers ! Graeme
