...this station will conduct a test...

Oops, I just derailed myself from the original intent of this post to something only vaguely related thereto. Because I just earwormed myself with the notorious "EBS test jingle" from upstate NY back in the 1970s, and the reason the FCC rule exists that EBS (and, later, EAS) test announcements had to be spoken and not sung.

"EBS test" jingle

I first heard this LIVE back in the 1970s, on vacation in the Thousand Islands, a visit to which was actually the initial inspiration for this test post.







If this works, a longer post will follow later this week.

But of course! I'm about to start the new post, so you'll have to wait a bit for the pix.

Since you've read the new post which talks about the Guzzle, you know that on this trip I got my ice cream at the NEW Guzzle, as the building we both remember from our childhoods was mostly destroyed in a fire five years ago; the replacement was opened two years ago.
