FINDING ROCK-IT RADIO ON THE 'TUNE IN RADIO' CELL PHONE APP.
We have had a few requests from listeners that they couldn't find us on the
popular 'Tune in Radio' App. on Android and PC and iphones.  Running a
search of 'Rock-it Radio' will actually list 100s of Rock stations. 
So, the best way to find us on this very thorough and extensive app. that
I love using myself is -
run a search on 'rockabilly' - there you will easily find
Rock-it Radio listed.

REMEMBERING OFFSHORE PIRATE RADIO IN THE
UNITED KINGDOM
IN THE 60S.

You can pretty safely debate that offshore pirate radio
brought Rock and Roll to Great Britain in the 60s.  Prior
to that, The only radio outlet in the UK was the BBC.  And
only had a few hours a week of programming dedicated to the
music the British youth were yearning for.  So, along came
Offshore broadcasting.  Basically refitted cargo ships into
a floating radio station - anchored just off the coast in
International waters.  Probably the most famous  being
Radio Caroline (named after Caroline Kennedy (JFK's daughter)).
These stations played the Rock and Roll of the day.
Rock-it Radio has a website dedicated to the Offshore Radio
days at:

Rockabilly bands looking for airplay

If you or know someone that would like airplay on Rock-it Radio we invite
you to submit your press kits to Rock-it Radio.  Our website for further
information is:
http://www.rockitradio.net/airplay.html

============================================
Come tune into  the World on your computer!

1000s of stations around the world now broadcast online.  We have a
link to some of the internet top directories to help you find these stations.
http://www.rockitradio.net/internetradio.html

============================================
Rock-it Radio Program Webpage Reminder

Remember, if the show that you want to hear is getting close to the bottom  
of the list of radio shows, you should tune in as soon as you can. These shows
to have a high audio quality require a lot of internet bandwidth and memory.  
And currently we can only afford the
30
latest shows online here at Rock-it Radio. 

So, when a new show is put online it knocks the oldest one off the Rock-it Radio  
archives page.  Usually a show will at least last 16 to 20 days, once it is placed in  
the archives.

============================================
OUR SISTER STATION FIRST NATIONS BROADCASTING.

We invite you to also check out our sister station -- First Nations
Broadcasting. And tune into the rather Cool North of the Yukon and Alaska  
with our very own Debbie Snowdove!


============================================ 
Well that is just about it for this newsletter and playlists of our latest
shows. We hope that you enjoy them.
We will do our best to keep these shows on for at least 14
days and hopefully 21 days.
All the best always,
Bennie Dingo
