@@lynxcat4life its in the works! stay tuned :D

@@lynxcat4life believe it or not, this is normal, it is common for when the power rail is icy. unless something has caught fire, it is harmless

@@akana_ fair enough, I've seen arcing before and it's fine but the sparks would have scared the hell outta me

@@lynxcat4life haha thank you! thanks to contributions from some friends as well as myself, I have racked up quite the collection of weird clips lmao

@@n1vca yeah it's just lots of flutter on my tape recorder. the clutch gear bushing is wearing out and i haven't been able to find a replacement yet, might try 3d printing a new part. it's a Sony WM-F46 if you're interested. my receiver is a DSP/digital one, very solid radio, it's definitely my recorder that's the problem.

@@akana_ you could of recorded it digitally on the pc with a mic

@@akana_ Why don't you use a PC or notebook? then you can edit and systematically save your recordings

@@n1vca Honestly, for most things I do use digital recording. But sometimes, using old tape can be fun. Its imperfections make it fun to use, imo. I am also quite young, so there is an element of novelty to using cassette recorders.

@@peterparker5077 I could have, yes. But I enjoy using cassette tapes, its fun for me. Radio is a hobby to me, the goal is not perfection, the goal is to have fun.

@@sansnom508 oh hey that's a cool heritage! according to NRC's website, the english is that of Harry Mannis (a former CBC announcer). Hope that helps :)

@akana_ If that's what the NRC says then I must be mistaken. Perhaps they were rival competitors for the title of Time Lord, lol. It was a long time ago. My father and Harry Mannis were contemporaries at the CBC and had the same measured delivery and impeccable pronunciation and grammatical skills required to be on the CBC airwaves at the time. The CBC, NFB and NRC are vital parts of my Canadian heritage.

@@ronzagata4021 yes, it's a time signal

lol, you saw it before i fixed the title. mb.

@@kiopah Nope, this is CHU, a time signal broadcast operated by the Canadian National Research Council (NRC). Transmitters in Ottawa. The station broadcasts 24/7 on three shortwave frequencies, and 14670khz tends to be the only frequency receivable this far west. Note: at the top of the minute, the announcement of the UTC time is in both French and English :)

@@Flea-Flicker This is the radio station CHU, operated by Canada's National Research Council (NRC). CHU is a shortwave broadcast of a time signal generated by an atomic clock. Each beep you hear is one second passing. At the end of each minute, an announcer says the time of the next minute in both french and english, followed by a tone to mark the start of the minute. Each minute also contains frequency-shift-keyed (FSK) digital data to be decoded by some timekeeping devices.

@@akana_that’s pretty cool

@@akana_ I assume it is a recording of someone reading out the time and not a "live performance" so to speak lol?

@@trippydrew8492 correct

@@akana_ I was gonna say, that'd be one boring job 😅

@@AndreA-ke2id In short: it's a radio station that's basically a clock. Runs 24/7 every day, every year, to keep our clocks and equipment across canada perfectly in sync.

@@akana_ Thank you for the information, very interesting. But, correct me if I'm wrong, isn't Greenwich in England the prime reference point for time round the globe with local time zones taking that as their starting point ?

@@AndreA-ke2id Correct! CHU broadcasts Greenwich time (UTC), as do all time signal radio stations. time zones can be added or subtracted accordingly.

@@lucario.pokedex.0448 yeah!! it was a really special catch, i love this clip

@@teetheatersanonymous haha yup. i may be a transit enthusiast, but surely anyone can appreciate some scenic sunset views (with a side of buses) :P

I'd rather not make the title too verbose
