"I am often asked how radio works. Well, you see, wire telegraphy is like a very long cat. You yank his tail in New York and he meows in Los Angeles. Do you understand this? Now, radio is exactly the same, except that there is no cat." : Albert Einstein

The Animals - House of the Rising Sun played on vintage electronics.
This must have taken a while to put together. The idea to use the scanner as a musical instrument is not new but getting it to play well is not easy. I think he did a great job in keeping the different devices in sync, particularly considering they don't share common interfaces or protocols!

Nice Find Owen,
Its one of my favourite songs (along with "while my guitar gently sleeps")
wonder if they take requests?
Hey Brin,
'While my guitar' is one of my favorites as well.
I've been listening to "HER and Kings County" http://youtu.be/oEOkwwRzwy8 and just saw "Red Solo Cup" http://youtu.be/BKZqGJONH68 which was so Texas it just wasn't funny!
Best wishes to you and your family.
